True mastery-based (or standards-based) education would focus purely on results. Attendance would be the means to an end, not the goal.
Public school attendance last fall averaged 90 percent, according to a federal survey, a figure that experts say remains too low. The data comes as the White House urges states to focus on chronic absenteeism this year. wapo.st/421BenS

At Apple, we know educators. We know all the prep that goes into getting ready for new students. This year, we want to take last year’s nearly vacant classrooms to the next level by giving away $1,500.💰🥳 Enter for a #chancetowin by Mon., 8/23! ✨ bit.ly/3s9Bdwd ✨

It's always "$600 checks two years ago and 50-cent raises for workers are causing inflation" and never "$3 trillion from the Fed to bail out the stock market, $1 trillion in annual corporate stock buybacks and a 1,322% rise in CEO pay since 1978 are causing inflation"

"Mario games teach us that even if something is essentially the same, psychologically it can be completely different. This example is very easy to understand."

Pay us, provide decent materials, and leave us alone.

It’s hard to imagine anything more irresponsible than obsessively pushing STEM divorced from any kind of moral framework. Incredible technology in the hands of people with no ethical formation does not make the world better.

This. We too often fail to recognize that the entire app/social media industry is built around exploiting weaknesses in our brain to get us on their phones. A hyper-focus on engagement is a battle we won't win. We aren't more "engaging" than what's on their phone. Period.
"Don't ban phones, make lessons more exciting" I've seen people checking their phones during high-intensity MCU scenes. If big budget movies can't beat the call of the notification, you think lil ol' me can?
