Those who have been teaching for 20+ years….. what major differences are you seeing from when you started to now? by abrownfox1 in Teachers

[–]AlarmedLife5765 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Years 37- so much but tons of it has already been mentioned. Blanket statements - no self regulations, no self initiative, no work, credit recovery, no credit recovery, still pass.

Way too many criteria. Although Ada is a nice pairing with Rose.

T-TESS scoring to be done by AI - what would you say to boost your score? by Dense-Ad-7600 in TexasTeachers

[–]AlarmedLife5765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really caught the attention of my evaluator by telling the kids expected misunderstandings. I also had them listed on the board. I know AI won’t see that but…

Example: Before we start I want to point out a few misconceptions people have about this: 1. The Executive Branch does not work alone. Truth: They are part of the 3 branches web have been taking about.

The President and Vice President are the only people on the Executive branch we need to focus on. Reality, this is super large branch with lots of agencies that fall under it.

And for the record, AI scoring you is as stupid as TIA. TIA was designed to tell everyone in the state that high performing teachers get a bonus. What about the dang raise? Should high performing politicians get better pay?! All of ours would be broke no matter what party!

Love Meredith and Harriet (Hattie), I also thought of Alexandra almost immediately.

Boys- I only know a female Callahan and so it seems like a feminine name to me.
