BIRMINGHAM, Ala. When Rickeyda Carter started teaching young children, she led story time the way she remembers being taught as a child. That meant children were expected to sit, listen and remain silent. When the teacher is reading, you dont talk, Carter recalled. Carter didnt think anything of this approach for nearly a decade, until the program where she was employed, New Rising Star Early Childhood Development Center, opted to participate in an initiative aimed at improving the interaction
San Francisco is seen as a global tech capital, yet even here, high school students are shockingly ill-equipped to survive in the modern digital age. The school where I teach science is nestled in the historic Mission District of San Francisco, mere miles from the sprawling campuses of X, Meta and Google. During the pandemic, our district embodied this tech-forward identity by providing Chromebooks and hotspots for all students to go fully remote for an entire academic year of virtual learning.

A Discovery That Reshapes the Story of Human Innovation For over a century, Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania has been the stage for some of the most profound discoveries in human evolution. It has yielded fossils and tools that have pieced together our early ancestors' story, allowing archaeologists to understand how hominins interacted with their environment.
Last month, my colleague Jill Barshay detailed potentially devastating cuts made to education research when the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) terminated 89 contracts at the Institute of Education Sciences, a research arm of the Department of Education. Soon after, DOGE canceled an additional 10 contracts at regional education laboratories around the country.
For decades, the fossilized skulls and teeth of Paranthropus robustus have provided a glimpse into the life of this extinct hominin, which roamed the landscapes of what is now South Africa nearly 2 million years ago. Its massive jaws and heavily enameled teeth suggest a diet tough enough to withstand lean seasons, while the differences in skull size hint at a polygynous mating system, where larger males likely dominated smaller females.
1. Formation as the Practice of many Practices I write in my book 'Pedagogy and Education for Life' that: Education is the whole of life of a community, and the experience of its members learning to live this life, from the standpoint of a specific goal. And of course the formation of our students is a critical part of how this occurs as we enact this through our pedagogy.

Heres a song that I made using SUNO: a tool which Matt Podbury introduced me to at Practical Pedagogies which uses AI to write a song in whatever style you want, and on a theme. This was to go alongside one of my favourite lessons, when we explore the story of the Ever Laurel and the 29000 bath toys fell into the North Pacific in 1992 and revealed some of the workings of ocean gyres and their role in concentrating ocean plastics, to which the bath toys added as they disintegrated over the decade

"The very act of making a building is energy hungry and vastly wasteful even if the building is an eco-igloo of Fairtrade otter droppings, carbon-neutral Panda scraps, ethical vegan meat, organic yoghurt blocks, recycled slurry and and bio-degradable avocado face wipes. the only truly sustainable present is one in which we do not build.
I met Winona Hastings on the basketball court in Supai village. It was a couple hours after perhaps half the tribal community had packed into Havasupai Elementary School for its eighth grade promotion ceremony. Indian fry bread had been served. Family photos were taken. Hastings two young daughters, Kyla and Kayleigh, chased each other across the basketball court as she watched from a nearby bench.
Another term-time Wednesday means it's time for another Worldly Wednesday. These are starting to add up now. First up today was to finish a consultancy project with Paula Owens, who I have worked with on a lot of projects over the years (going back to 2008!) This has been an interesting project. Thanks to our reviewers for commenting on our work and helping us improve the later drafts.
A story in The Guardian connecting Greenland with mining pollution and the work of large companies. There is also a link with strategic minerals and the energy transition, against a backdrop of Trump's There is a legacy of toxic mining waste from previous industrial activity which pollutes groundwater and marine ecosystems, on which local people rely.
