this thought brought to you by us missing an elective registration deadline for my kid’s middle school next year, which as far as I can tell we were only notified about by a PDF inside of a ClassDojo link from a teacher at the elementary school he currently attends

Thesis 4: “the tweet says that, whenever Christopher Nolan brags about not having a phone or an email account, all he’s doing is telling us that his wife raises their kids all by herself. Does this man have a ClassDojo account? Is he looped into the shared calendar?”
I wrote about whether Odysseus is a *dad* or a *father* — and why Christopher Nolan should just get a phone and not be such a turd about it. pjmaciak.substack.com/p/the-dadyssey

(b is not sarcastic! Everyone's going to forget sometimes, especially on ClassDojo, where you literally have to send everything twice; the fact that she does it roughly the same with us both is actually massively reassuring.)

I'm mostly annoyed by all school communication being done through apps and emails. But Nancy's had a rough first few days of first grade and today is racking up ClassDojo Points (no idea what these are) that are sent to my phone in real time, and I'm afraid I must hand it to ClassDojo... feels great

The thing that makes me the most mad about the "No pride flags in the classroom" people is that they're always the kind of parents who have 15 unread ClassDojo messages and can barely remember what grade their kid is in.
It's never people sincerely invested in their child's education.

The open disdain these men have for teachers is just gross.
And notable too: the connection to ClassDojo should be further evidence of the platform as a vehicle to surveil, control, and punish.
If there was ever a time to develop a Luddite praxis in education to resist/refuse AI, now is that time.

“At the same time that federal support for public education is imperiled, two private online education programs whose seeds were planted with Musk and SpaceX are getting a second wind. Both could see even more growth under the country’s emerging educational environment.”
