This spring, the #PANeedsTeachers coalition, the Pennsylvania Educator Diversity Consortium, and other partners are heading to Harrisburg, but before we there there it’s important we tell legislators what matters to us: moving $75 million in funding for student teacher stipends forward along with $10 million for Grow-Your-Own programs. Establishing funding for student teacher stipends is a critical tool in our work to address teacher shortages in Pennsylvania. Student teachers gain hands-on experience while in classrooms learning from experienced teacher mentors and contribute immensely to our learners' current and future success. We must ensure these stipends have the opportunity to really impact student-teachers across the Commonwealth by fully funding them now. https://lnkd.in/evs7Vp6p? #PANEEDSTEACHERS

If you are a secondary public school principal, you are invited to participate in a study exploring the behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs of middle and high public-school principals regarding the use of student voice as part of doctoral research at Notre Dame University of Maryland. This survey should take approximately 6 minutes to complete. Survey data will be used in a larger research study to determine how secondary principals use student voice and how this strategy supports their leadership. To participate in the survey, please follow the link below to complete the survey before July 1, 2024. Survey link: https://lnkd.in/e_WYpuHU Thanks for considering this request.

My mind is simply…🤯 The END of June for schools to submit corrections? When FAFSAs are already coming in with errors students are having difficulty correcting? For those confused, some students have to skip to a section and use the “back” button continuously to get to the error needing correction. That’s pure insanity and tedious. Awarding timelines all depend on being able to make these corrections and could further hinder students attending in the fall semester. The U.S. Department of Education has truly set up schools and students alike to fail. But we won’t. Financial Aid offices are top tier and know how to withstand a dumpster fire. And if it’s the last thing we do, we won’t let our students feel the FAFSA wrath. #StrongerTogether

I need your help…🙏 This may be a great opportunity to share my ideas on how we can move forward in #education with the help of #AI. This event seems to be the perfect venue to discuss how we can impact the education system for the better. The theme is AI for good; and how we can make our state and community better through its use. I’m currently mulling over ideas to discuss like #assessment in the age of AI, utilizing AI for #teachers, how AI can deepen our thinking 💭, and so many more. This is also exciting because this is a Pennsylvania based training. I feel like this showed up on my feed for a reason…🤔🧐 What would your topic of discussion be? What would you talk about as a way to use AI for good and fire the betterment of your own community? What’s the hot topics that are on every teachers mind right now? Let me know your thoughts down below. 👇
