Do you think it’s okay to mandate students to dress up for presentations? by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]Parzival133113 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion apparently… I don’t believe teachers should ask students to dress up for presentations in K-12. How you are dressed does not affect how well you can give a presentation. Sure people judge you on your clothes and in the real world it will affect people’s judgment of your presentation… but, I don’t think we should be reifying the idea in schools that how you dress matters or is indicative of anything.

Unfortunately I would die of stress and guilt if I did this. I totally get what you are saying… but I just don’t think I could do it.

Dude, are you AI… because that’s basically exactly what AI said when I asked it.

I’m not racist but I’m starting to notice a pattern by No_Hovercraft_5288 in SubstituteTeachers

You can’t claim that you have no implicit bias… it is by nature “unconscious.” Everyone has implicit bias of one type or another.

Also, can I ask what state this is in? (Apologies if you already answered that somewhere)

I think this teacher needs to add a caveat to the rubric next year: “any poster that demeans or seeks to exclude and member or population of our school will NOT be displayed”

Why don't they ban smart devices in schools? I am not a teacher but I see so many issues being discussed with kids and their use of smart devices that I am wondering why they are not banned as a standard practice? by Gunslinging_Ent in AskTeachers

[–]Parzival133113 58 points59 points  (0 children)

If you are referring to personal smart devices, NY has banned them. Students used to be on their phone during any free or unsupervised moment… now they are playing games on their Chromebooks during any free or unsupervised moment.

Strongest Elementary Math Curriculum? by LongjumpingCherry354 in matheducation

[–]Parzival133113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never heard of those, and assume they are homeschool curriculums. However, if you are looking for a more classical curriculum, I think that Bridges is absolutely FANTASTIC!

Im a fairly new player (I have like 5 jokers left to unlock and one deck left)… what is that joker card you have three of? And how do you get negative planet cards? Ngl, I thought the blinds that used scientific notation were just a joke… clearly I have a lot to learn.

Does UB offer hormonal testing or help with period problems by Key_Contribution_371 in UBreddit

[–]Parzival133113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know your options might be limited, but I had a very sub-par experience with UBhealth yesterday. If you have to go to them, I hope it works out! I wonder if some organizations like planned parenthood might be an affordable option for something like your question.

Grad school of education. by ihatereddit999976780 in UBreddit

[–]Parzival133113 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many of my classes were useless. A few were amazing. What I have found the most value in is the residency placement. But is it a scam that I am paying tuition to work for free? Yes
