“But a more nuanced position about the U.S. role in the Western Hemisphere is described on page 15 of the Trump administration’s recent National Security Strategy, a document written… with this moment in American territorial adventurism in mind.” nytimes.com/2026/01/05/us/po…

Really proud of this article on the ways that social media functions as an apprenticeship of observation for future teachers. It was great to work with Jeff Carpenter and #ElonEd alum Grant Doherty on it. #teachered #teachereducation #edchat

“Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked.” — @TimothyDSnyder
I am teaching future social studies teachers this fall and probably going to use ‘On Tyranny’ to begin the semester. #ElonEd #sschat
Really appreciate this @espn story on #sustainability in the context of basketball shoes. Hope to see more like this — pushing the conversation, giving people information, and nudging companies to do better. espn.com/espn/feature/story/…
Holding out hope for this platform, but you can also find me on Bluesky.

Stashing this tweet to use with future #socialstudies teachers to demonstrate how social media content can be used as curriculum. How are current legislative efforts against DEI similar to resistance from white people during Reconstruction and post-Brown?
Love this!! 🔥
In celebration of Juneteenth, we partnered with @sircastletees and @b_pinto9 to design custom cleats 👟🎨
The funds raised will benefit @weare_org, a local nonprofit that provides anti-racism training for children, families, and educators. Bidding begins in Fan Fest tonight!

Exciting new🔓@eerjournal paper from @s_a_friedman @scomorrison: Findings from interviews with 9 adolescents reflect the complexity of their experiences of connection to nature and environmentalism and suggest that traditional enviro education concepts require an update🌳
At #AERA2024 and there is so much talk about centering Black children, families, and communities, and it always reminds me of @VillageOfWisdom and the amazing work they do. – at Philadelphia, PA
Thanks to Alyson @educationweek for the article that features our TikTok study! #ElonEd
Really appreciate this from @UnderstoodOrg. Recess or any other outside time should not be taken away as a punishment. I would also add that recess or time outside is not merely a “brain break” — suggesting that learning is not happening. 1/2 understood.org/en/articles/t…
Recess or time outside is more like a “brain enhancer” or “brain charger” because play and movement stimulates all kinds of brain activity. If teachers and administrators value student learning, they should provide more time outside, not less.
Need research to show the academic value of recess or other time outside? Kuo et al. (2018) is a good place to start: frontiersin.org/journals/psy… – at Elon, NC
