As we prepare for the week ahead, it's important to keep in mind the mental models we make and the effect they have on our behavior and our reality. Remember that your mental models matter! Download the poster here: hubs.ly/H0q5zjX0 #systemsthinkingdaily

I almost have my first 100 NIH approved faceshield frames printed. While I am working on the next 200, I am trying to organize makers in Tioga County to make even more. If you know a local maker send them my way!

When we do #math right, it's an engine of opportunity and a predictor of success in #school and career. But so often math lack joy and authenticity. A new report commissioned by #100Kin10 and overseen by dozens of experts lays out a new path forward. loom.ly/VTUtEFo
