Back to School is Upon Us

School starts in a few weeks, and instagram has been reminding me of some things that I feel the need to share, in no particular order:

1. How you decorate and design your classroom can affect how well (or poorly) students can focus. Neon rainbow everything with every square inch of wall covered in 14,000 “cute” but illegible fonts will likely be overstimulating for your students and will definitely be more of a distraction than a help.

2. Rewards, points systems, prizes, and other extrinsic motivators are bandaid methods of managing behavior. They are not classroom management. They will not last. They will undermine your students’ motivation to do the right thing because it’s the right thing. And when one system stops working, it becomes an endless cycle of trying to find the next shiny thing that will keep some semblance of order and productivity in the room.

3. BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT IS NOT CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT. Behavior management is not classroom management. Behavior management is. not. classroom. management.

But classroom management IS behavior management.

Classroom management means having a plan for ordering the classroom and how students will accomplish various procedures throughout the day. Classroom management means knowing how you want things done: how do you want students to enter the room in the morning? Where do they put their things? Where do they sit? What will they do when they get there? How will they get materials? How will they turn in work? What are the expectations for behavior in the room? What happens when expectations are not met?

The more structured and clear your expectations and procedures are, the more consistently you teach and practice and follow through on them, the easier they are for students to accomplish. Students NEED structure. Anything you want students to do must be explicitly taught.

Points and rewards and punishments undermine student ownership and motivation. Rewards are fun every once in a while, but let’s be honest, do you really want to have to manage all of that every day?

The best classroom and behavior management is to a) know what you want students to do and how you want them to do it; b) explicitly TEACH them what and how, and then practice until it’s automatic; and c) be consistent.

Consistent, clear expectations and follow-through will trump every other behavior management involving prizes and bribes and punishments.

4. Just because something is on Instagram, Pinterest, or TikTok, just because something looks cute or fun, doesn’t mean it’s effective, good for kids, or best practice. There are evidence-based practices that are both effective AND engaging. Be judicious.

the way i instantly lost all respect for my professor the moment he explained that we will be required to use ai generation to complete assignments for a grade in his class

Experiencing a CTM (close to male) intersex variation doesn't mean having Wolffian duct, and intersex Wolffians can be CTF.

Intersex people can be neither CTM or CTF while still experiencing Müllerian and/or Wolffian ducts.

People can experience neither Mullerian or Wolffian traits too.

reading a document that alludes to the "ACEs epidemic." as if i could forget that the concept of adverse childhood experiences and the larger child-serving systems' conception of trauma was borne first out of a fucking obesity clinic. so of course samhsa-vouched frameworks which are otherwise fairly unobjectionable (given, [waves hand at known systematic, epistemological issues]) can't not pathologize adverse experiences. while i do believe in improving long-term health outcomes thru structural change it is always unpleasant to be reminded that that, too, is often a mere euphemism for medical oppression and subordination of othered bodies and lives.
