¿Por qué no los dos?

Can you pull up a bookmarked item to read when you don’t have an active network connection? If yes, that’s a “read it later” service. If no, then that’s why they are useful.

In the states I’ve lived in, Junior High and Middle school are both synonymous with grades 6-8

That was what I was referring to. I was being a bit hyperbolic, but a year in national service (beyond just the military) to do community service and gain skills in general not a new proposal. Pete Buttigieg suggested it after HS as part of his candidacy during the 2020 democratic primary.

That’s fair. In my district your insurance is covered if you qualify for assistance, but intentional damage isn’t included in insurance.

In my school we will still replace the Chromebook though (barring admin or district saying otherwise), and the financial impact will be fought by others at the district level. It’s above my pay grade.

Yes they are. These 9th graders are feral though. That realization would require forethought.

Some of these kids should have been sent out to cut trail for a year between HS and Middle School.

It was anything but typical.

I believe the first case was Robert Palmer in 1979. There are recordings of him pleading with a doctor for any news for his bad case. It seemed like there was no pills to cure him either.

To be fair, I don’t know that we don’t block coursera as well but the block I specifically saw was for a course hero. And some of the blocks that we have on are for security reasons over reliability reasons. We have to be hyper cautious about the students leaking any potentially PHI and some of the Google sign in setups are less secure than others.

That’s been my go to since they started. There is/was a challenge using them when we evaluated them a while back with forcing safe search reliability if I recall the reason.

We have a different person that manages our block list so I don’t know the reason for all the blocks. That said, we block https://www.coursehero.com/ not https://www.coursera.org/

Thanks for the tip

That is exactly what is happening. They type in the search query on their Chromebook (for example, “why do dry erase markers float”, the results page flashes for a second and then the “this page is blocked” screen comes up saying they were blocked from Reddit, et al. Without them clicking on any search results.

And 2 kids can do the exact same search at the same time and get blocked for different sites or only one will get blocked.

I work in an education setting and in the last month, Google started preloading the contents of other sites directly on the search page. It is wreaking havoc when combined with our blocking tools because kids will do a Google search for something innocuous and the page will immediately get blocked because it tried to load a result from Reddit or coursehero or something else we have blocked.

It’s incredibly frustrating.

I remember when she was popular learning that that she was like 10 years younger than me, so 35-ish.

It’s an older meme sir, but it checks out.

Even though I appreciate this post, I don’t think I will comment.
