The Singapore-based company Genius Group has turned some of its attention to the U.S. edtech market recently. It’s making acquisitions, and even listed on the New York Stock Exchange in April. In July, the company bought the for-profit University of Antelope Valley in California, saying it would incorporate it as a portal in the metaverse, part of the voguish effort to link the globe into “one big classroom.

The first time I read about Unschooling , I ignored it. Surely, it was a fad that would go away. When I read about it a thousand more times, I dug into it. Inspired by the teachings of John Holt (1923–1985), this free range branch of homeschooling promotes learning through nonstructured, child-led exploration. There’s no set curriculum or schedule; students learn what interests them with guidance from involved adults.

I’m on the brink of my third year of teaching, inching quickly towards retirement, as recent teacher attrition data suggests. Arguably, many educators, including myself, who began their teaching careers at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic are facing the most demanding year of our careers. Test scores have been slow to rebound , particularly for the middle grades.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

Last night I had a dream during which someone suggested that COBOL would make a good first programming language. They tried to promote the data division and English language syntax as plusses. When I shared this on social media it got a lot of laughs. Few would take this as a serious idea and with good reason. We used to joke that the hardest part of programming in COBOL was learning how to spell environment.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 13% growth in computer and IT occupations between 2020 and 2030. Yet many students — especially those in underrepresented groups — are not given the opportunity to learn computer science. Now is the time for school districts to better prepare all students for a technology-driven future where computer science skills and knowledge are in demand across every industry.

The high voltage breakdown of plexiglass creates beautiful fractal patterns called Lichtenberg figures. Credit: Bert Hickman. “Catching lightning in a bottle” is an idiom for a nearly impossible goal. While trapping lightning in a bottle is still out of reach, we can trap lightning in plexiglass or acrylic with some clever science. To start with, lightning is a giant electric spark that occurs in a cloud, between two clouds, or between a cloud and the ground.

Lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), caesium (Cs), and francium (Fr) together make up the alkali metals. They are also known as the lithium family of elements. Along with hydrogen gas (H), the alkali metals form the first group of the periodic table of elements. All the alkali metals have one outer electron at the atomic level. They quickly lose this electron to gain a +1 positive charge.

College in the U.S. mainly comes in a few fixed shapes and sizes: the research university, the liberal arts college, the community college, the technical college. And except for relatively new options by for-profit upstarts, the options haven’t changed much in decades, despite the rise of the internet and a knowledge economy. Oh, and there’s the COVID pandemic, which jolted all professors into using more online tools, and has brought further changes to the job market.
