French pianist and teacher Marie Pleyel was born (or July 4?) #OTD in 1811.
She was engaged to Hector Berlioz in 1830, but after three months, while Berlioz was in Italy, she broke the engagement to marry Camille Pleyel. After their separation in 1835, her concert career flourished. She was appointed a professor of piano at the Brussels Conservatory in 1848, where she taught until her retirement in 1872.
American educator Prudence Crandall was born #OTD in 1803.
She ran the Canterbury Female Boarding School, which became the 1st school for black girls in the United States. The decision to admit Black students led to intense opposition. Local residents passed a law specifically targeting her school, known as the Black Law, which made it illegal to operate a school for Black students from out of state without local permission.

Last year, AI boosters couldn’t shut up about how chatbots would improve healthcare, education, and become an assistant for any task imaginable.
But as more research is done on AI tools, the benefits seem illusive and the drawbacks are impossible to deny.

In a State With #School #Vouchers For All, Low-Income Families Aren’t Choosing to Use Them
—
Working-class parents often express interest in vouchers. But in #Arizona, the nation’s school choice capital, these families aren’t using them due to the inaccessibility of private schools and the costs of #transportation, meals and uniforms.

Hey, Fedi friends. We're in the process of winding down operations for the year so we can close our office and give our staff a break for the holidays.
...but! We'll be keeping an eye on our account here, so if you have questions about our resources or need any help, please give us shout. (We know overworked teachers may be doing prep for next year over the holidays and we don't want to leave you in the lurch!) We might be a little slower to answer than usual but we are always happy to hear from you and we're thrilled if we can connect you with the resources you're looking for.
We hope you get a bit of time to rest and recharge at the end of the year, too. ❤️

The #US #Education Department plans to move the offices that oversee #SpecialEducation services & #CivilRights out of the agency, part of the #Trump admin’s effort to close the department by moving all its functions to other parts of the government… [& further divide the classes creating a dumb servile class & a wealthy educated elite class].
The announcement was expected later in the day.

This is a bio-weapon 💉🔫 and it WAS done deliberately ✅ and he needs to stop trying to protect the culprits…I love this guy and thankful that he at least got all of this out in the open…..BUT it is #Dr #Janci_Lindsay that spoke out the most #truth on this… Too bad her testimony was cut SHORT..??

this is what
1:44
happened during covid
1:47
to deaths from vaccines do you see we're
1:51
at over 35 000 deaths typically you
1:53
would get no more than 200 deaths in a
1:57
year for all 30 vaccine or for all of
2:00
the vaccines combined
2:02
this is the past 30 years of deaths from
2:05
vaccines reported into the Veris
2:07
database you've already heard earlier
2:08
that this represents only one to 13
2:11
percent of the cases that are normally
2:14
reported
2:15
this is a safety signal
2:18
this is a safety signal this is the
2:20
platform itself okay in the clinical
2:23
trials we saw deaths we definitely had
2:26
deaths
2:27
that was used in process one without the
2:30
contamination okay what may not have
2:33
been clear is that the the shots tested
2:36
on the people in the clinical trials
2:38
were vastly different than the shots
2:40
tested or given to people released on
2:43
the population
2:45
um I'm short on time so I'm trying to
2:46
fit this in basically people were given
2:49
in the clinical trial a clean shot
2:51
people everybody else was given these
2:54
contaminated shots every single file
2:56
that's been tested by every scientist
2:58
around the world is contaminated with
3:01
these plasmids
3:02
and there can just some are contaminated
3:04
when when Kevin mckernan first tested
3:07
the vials he found that one of the vials
3:11
contained up to about 30 percent uh of
3:15
the nucleic acid material was in fact
3:17
DNA so this is not some residual
3:19
contamination that's carrying over this
3:21
is significant contamination why does
3:23
that matter gene therapy was never
3:26
brought to Market even though it's been
3:27
over 40 years in development because in
3:30
the past it caused latent cancers that
3:33
developed two to four years after these
3:35
were given because it caused lethal
3:38
autoimmune reactions even when you were
3:41
producing human proteins not viral

"Fold paper. Insert lens. This $2 microscope changes how kids see the world"
https://www.npr.org/sections/goats-and-soda/2024/11/24/g-s1-35181/microscope-lens-students-foldscope
"Once assembled the Foldscope is the size of a bookmark. It’s small enough to fit in a pocket and can magnify up to 140 times.
Each unit costs around $2 to make. Foldscopes are offered for free to kids in lower income countries; various upgraded models with extras are sold as well, earning money for the charitable endeavor."
How do you convince yourself to learn something small first?
I have a difficult time starting anything and an even harder time finishing. And I have been known to start at later steps than I should. I was even like that with reading.
I end up all or nothing a lot.
