The administration is now targeting further and is now trying to eliminate teacher's grants, when teachers already make awful money for the fact they have to get a Master's degree.

Education is already badly funded, so I fail to see how you could eliminate any more spending without directly hurting it.

It's a direct attempt to make our future more stupid, and make more sheeple.

Featured story: SB 2 stipulates that up to 5% of appropriated funds may go to pay up to 5 outside vendors like ClassWallet, which the legislation calls “certified educational assistance organizations.” If the bill were to pass, these private companies could soon be reeling in tens and even hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars per year. texasobserver.org/school-vouch

Le gouverneur républicain de Floride, Ron DeSantis, s’étant rendu compte que son Etat manquait de main-d’œuvre pour des emplois mal payés depuis qu’il fait la chasse aux immigrés, il a donc eu une brillante idée : faire bosser les gamins à la place. Le travail de nuit sera autorisé dès 14 ans y compris les jours de semaine, après l'école. Un jour, une horreur. edition.cnn.com/2025/03/25/bus

A user of my #Moodle #AIText question type (free text with #LLM feedback) was telling me how they supplied as much as possible of the answers in the #prompt to improve the quality of responses. This reminded me that no matter how interested I am in how my code is used, there is no substitute for it being used “in anger” by a real #teacher.

(*anger is used as a metaphor in this context, I prefer it if teachers are not actually angry using my plugins)
