| 1623735531078299648 | Alberta’s government is committed to workplace health and safety and finding new ways to help workers stay safe on the job. $150,000 in funding will allow SafeGen to provide education to #abed youth in schools. https://t.co/monbQTWB5s @AlbertaEd (1/2) https://t.co/UqCgqbUjX4 | 3 |
| 1624615394697965568 | A 🧵 about what grades/percentages really mean. In preparation for my latest presentation about my journey into #ungrading, assessment & reporting, I looked to the @AlbertaEd subject bulletin for the science PAT & the descriptions of the Acceptable Std & Std of Excellence 1/4 https://t.co/KihU1BrDSn | 2 |
| 1624098550257942528 | @RachelNotley So about the ban on isolation rooms your party refused to legislate. What is your platform promise to keep students safe in school? Will you end the barbaric practice of isolating & segregating children in @AlbertaEd? @CupeAB @albertateachers @EPSBNews @EdmCathSchools #AbLeg https://t.co/2EXui30xTF | 2 |
| 1623738703255601154 | Big thanks to #JP2’s Mr. LeCerf and @NWP_AB for the pathways collaboration on-site hands-on experience yesterday. Our @gpcsd students worked alongside 1st and 2nd year #welding Ss and the day of collaboration and learning was excellent. @demetriosnAB @AlbertaEd #TAVE https://t.co/opspOGFGMV | 1 |

| 1625300390542704641 | @pwharris @MarianaPT_OCT The MAIN problem with declaring a "standard" algorithm is that people all around the world use different "standard" algorithms and to hold up a white, North American one as "THE" one is just straight-up racist. Attention @AlbertaEd #abed #ableg | 1 |
| 1625243445567827970 | Thanks to the Community Association for Local Success (CALS) in @VegrevilleAB, students are benefitting from a new #nutrition program. @ALHortonSchool, @vegcomp, @EIPSNextStep, @AlbertaEd #eips #Vegreville https://t.co/GmQct9UY4Q | 1 |
| 1624099830057541632 | @RachelNotley @AlbertaEd @CupeAB @albertateachers @EPSBNews @EdmCathSchools Did the union pay the news not to follow up on how many kids are still being abused/segregated in public education? Why are reporters afraid to touch this story? Why has the NDP not asked for an internal investigation? Not even after UCP ripped up a ban to curve the abuse. #AbLeg | 1 |

| 1623733392339529730 | A good summary of efficiencies within #epsb. Sharing bus routes with @EdmCathSchools is common sense and this model of collaboration should be expanded as much as possible across Alberta. Good for savings and the environment. https://t.co/XqLDCL3bkE @AlbertaEd #abed | 7 |

| 1624617177398808576 | @SciGeekJulie @AlbertaEd I love all of this! I have been using outcomes based assessment for many years and there are no numbers on any of my grading. Just feedback on specifics and how they did on that outcome. It is a way better indicator of their strengths and areas of growth. | 4 |
| 1624094322726690818 | #EDES340 Much of this work was due to visionary leadership & additional funds from @AlbertaEd through A.I.S.I. (Alberta Initiative for School Improvement) which helped to move schools into becoming professional learning communities. Where are we today? Are we still learning? | 3 |

| 1624623868005711872 | @SciGeekJulie @AlbertaEd It’s not perfect and it’s a major shift but my kids no longer ask what their mark is and they get levelled assessments. I am finally at the stage were kids try attempting questions at the level above where they think they are. It’s such a confidence booster! | 2 |
