Back in August, many people, particularly white women, got angry when I tweeted that “learning loss” is based on arbitrary standards that could be changed and adapted to better suit our current reality of trying to survive a multiyear pandemic.
Very well said! As I hear people say learning loss, I’m thinking of how many ways I saw school could be done differently. What I saw was dull curriculum not culturally responsive to my student, Fridays that seemed to be a “fun” day and not enough paper or computers to even have a lesson. I seldom saw a lot of learning happening.
