Deciding what to wear to my tutoring job is always a bit of a balancing act. It's a college campus, where casual-to-sloppy attire is de rigueur. But it's a college campus, which I think requires a certain formality, at least for the educators (sadly, the teachers are oftentimes as uncaring as the students in what they wear...but I'm from a very different era. )
So this was my choice for the high wire a few days ago. A denim skirt, kind of casual, but a nice top and pendant and, of course, my favorite kitten heels.
I doubt anyone noticed, much less cared, but standards are standards, and they're there for a reason.
But...well, full disclosure: I have to admit that I knew that I would be posting these photos here on Flickr, and my legs always garner nice comments. So I'm not altogether altruistic; a healthy dose of vanity went into the outfit too!

Commemorated on a new mural in Sarasota’s Rosemary District, Emma E. Booker began teaching at Sarasota County’s first black school in 1918. At a time of racial segregation, the school was starved of resources, with old orange crates being used as desks and relying on hand-me-down books discarded from white schools. Eventually achieving recognition for her pioneering efforts, Emma E. Booker gave her name to a local elementary school - which President George W. Bush was visiting when he was informed of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"Carita educatrice (Charity the Educator) by the sculptor Lorenzo Bartolini (1777-1850).
Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
The woman is caring for two children. She encourages the older one to read. Inscribed on his scroll is the moral: "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you."
The woman personifies the virtue of Caritas(Charity) in her role as educator, a typical Italian theme. With this scuplture Bartolini contributed to a topical discussion at the time (18th century) about the importance of education in Tuscany
“Order is found in things working beneficially together. It is not the forced condition of neatness, tidiness, and straightness, all of which are, in design or energy terms, disordered. True order may lie in apparent confusion . ."

Woodcut from The Popular Educator 1868.
A complete illustrated Encyclopaedia for Elementary, Advanced and Technical Education.
Published by Cassell, Petter & Galpin, London. Six volumes in three books, half leather and gilt binding with marbled covers and marbled endplates. Total 2500 pages 26cm x 19.5cm .
A couple hundred makers, teachers and parents gathered at the 2nd Maker Educator Convening, held May 17 - 18, 2016, at The Crucible in Oakland, CA. This was my first conference as a maker art teacher, and it was a great way to connect with other educators and learn from each other.
We started with a visit of The Crucible, an amazing arts school that offers youth and adult classes in glass blowing, woodworking, jewelry, welding and more -- a great model for planning our own makerspaces ( thecrucible.org/ ) .
We then watched and discussed 'Most Likely to Succeed', an excellent documentary on education in the 21st century ( www.mltsfilm.org/ ). It shows examples of hands-on, project-based, student-driven and collaborative learning -- and how this new approach can help students find a sense of purpose and develop invaluable 'soft skills', not just technical skills.
The morning keynote by Nichole Pinkard was also very inspiring, as she presented her findings from the Digital Youth Network in Chicago, and led a discussion about deepening the impact of maker education by bridging learning frameworks.
We then got our hands dirty to map our maker educator network, using blinking LEDs, post-it notes and pipe cleaners to represent our various schools and makerspaces on a U.S. map -- which showed clearly that a majority of participants came from California.
We spent the rest of the day hearing lightning talks about maker ed, brainstorming ideas, sharing best practices and starting new collaborations. A very productive event!
Many thanks to the team at MakerEd.org for organizing this gathering. They do a fine job connecting teachers and resources, both at events like these and online: makered.org/

These screen captures from the Pompeii Walking Tour 2020 video is courtesy of the POMPEII ARCHAEOLOGICAL PARK and ProWalk Tours.
Note to educators: ProWalk Tours as producer of the original video footage has agreed to allow my derivative still images to be licensed with Creative Commons Attribution Sharealike so they can be freely used for teaching and research publications.
Technical notes: I have used Topaz Sharpen AI to remove the slight motion blur in screen captures as well as Adobe Camera Raw to adjust clarity, texture, highlights, shadows, and occasionally haze and white balance. I increased dynamic contrast and added a subtle vignette with On1 Photo Raw Effects and removed distracting visitors and some barriers, as well as replaced empty skies with Photoshop and its Sky Replacement feature, changing the blend mode from Screen to Multiply to avoid excessive editing of the mask layer.
You can explore the Pompeii Walk video yourself here - no special hardware is required

Educators and allies from Des Moines Public Schools as well as from school districts throughout Iowa met at the East High School Parking lot for the Drive for Lives protest on Friday, July 24th. The procession of cars drove around the Capitol building in protest of Governor Kim Reynolds' July 17 Proclamation.
Drive for Lives stands for:
1. We support school districts who tirelessly worked to develop Return to Learn plans drawing from the advice of public health experts, with little guidance from Governor Reynolds and other state agencies. We support the School Boards who have taken strong stands for safety of students and staff.
2. We call for the July 17 Governor’s Proclamation, which mandates face-to-face learning during our current pandemic, to be rescinded immediately. As Iowa communities are unique from each other and have experienced Covid-19 in different ways, local boards and leaders need to make key evidence-based decisions on the structure of schools and learning.
3. We call for school districts yet to develop safe plans for a return to learning to collaborate with local public health officials based on current Covid-19 data and trends, with clear benchmarks to be met before in-person learning can begin.
4. We call for advocacy. Concerned students, parents, teachers, district leaders, public health experts, local elected officials, and members of the state legislature please make your voices heard and help us work together to protect our students and their learning communities.
