If we truly cared about education policy as more than an ideological lever for punishing, rewarding, and sorting, the best and easiest thing the wealthiest country in the history of the world could do to raise test scores overnight is give poor families money. https://t.co/1qjzI6tzFx— Nick Covington (@CovingtonEDU) March 29, 2023

We updated our piece on “Navigating Autism Acceptance Month & Autism Myths”. We explain how to be a better ally during this month that many autistic people feel we have to hide to avoid the painful misinformation.https://t.co/1jVFk8KBZ8#AutismAcceptanceMonth #Autism— Stimpunks Foundation (@stimpunks) March 29, 2023

Different solution needed. Many professionals can easily & quickly recognise a child is autistic, yet instead of being able to make a diagnosis, must refer to overwhelmed specialist services.‘Children put at risk’ as NHS autism assessments are cut back https://t.co/i9vxHNpjwS— Mary Doherty (@AutisticDoctor) March 26, 2023

Often when autistic kids are called “attention seeking” or “aggressive,” what is really happening is that their previous communication attempts have been unrecognized, or ignored. Understanding & supporting autistic communication styles matters, so much.https://t.co/Z93Dkjfnj7 pic.twitter.com/zozjE2FtTY— Thinking Person's Guide To Autism (@thinkingautism) March 26, 2023

Our friend, Zoe Bee, tackles the Cult of Efficiency in her new video: "Our continued focus on grades and test scores means that school is often a constant source of stress. And while many of these sources of stress are effective, they aren’t good." https://t.co/8n5TiHViUQ #edchat— Human Restoration Project (@HumResPro) March 25, 2023

I'm 100% convinced that we can do this work with every middle school kid - every upper elementary kid - our children rise to our expectations when we treat them as humans.— Ira Socol - @irasocol@mastodon.social (@irasocol) March 24, 2023

"Every year, I have to go thru Medicaid redetermination, which assesses my eligibility so that my coverage can be renewed. Even tho I’ve been thru this process seemingly countless times, when that thick packet from the county comes, it still creates a pit of dread in my stomach." https://t.co/TZieLYn4Ub— Thinking Person's Guide To Autism (@thinkingautism) March 21, 2023

This is well said and applies too to the larger systems schools feed. In economies based on competition and enclosures, failure and exclusion are built in. Rethinking school should be an opportunity to rethink everything else and vice versa. https://t.co/AozeFaSr1D— Isabel Rodríguez 🥑 (@ecomentario) March 19, 2023

If you get a moment today consider watching @WalkerSensei & celebrate “Expanding the Creative Potentials of Human #Neurodiversity”. “Expand your mind, approach your neurocognitive functioning as a canvas” so much creative potential!
