While the United States runs smoothly now, this has not always happened. It took trials and tribulations to form different departments, appoint leaders, and establish law. Thankfully, the branches of government all have essential yet distinct roles. This allows them to focus on specific aspects to strengthen and successfully run the United States without conflict.

Much has been made of artificial intelligence’s potential to revolutionize education. AI is making it increasingly possible to break down barriers so that no student is ever left behind. This potential is real, but only if we are ensuring that all learners benefit. Far too many students, especially those with special needs, do not progress as well as their peers do academically.

TOLEDO, Ohio – The sound of his teacher smacking his desk jolted Marquan into consciousness, and his head jerked up. “Wake up,” his teacher said. Marquan hadn’t slept much the night before, and the words came out before he was fully coherent. “Watch out before you make me mad,” he said. His teacher turned and asked if that was a threat. The 16-year-old said no, he was just startled, but it was too late – he was sent out of the classroom and given a two-day suspension.

The title of this post is on motion, but it could have just as easily be called toxic culture of productivity, let me explain. I did a lot of work this week. In fact on reflection I did the amount of work that is probably impossible to do in a week, but somehow it got done, and I am not sure how that happened. And when I have weeks like that, which happen every once in a while it often gives me pause and though I am happy that I got done what I got done, weeks like this also make me sad.
