Memo to K-12 students: resistance is USEFUL
Public schools tend to make their students passive. I also note that parents, etc. are passive. The K-12 system is such a successful leviathan, it just squeezes the life out of everybody.
If you’ve ever had these thoughts and would like some support, read on.

A new article titled “Memo to K-12 students: Resist” is getting a good response. I think people want to at least hear the other side articulated.

10 years ago I wrote an article called “A speech to teenagers about their education.” Same ideas roughly. I believe this is my most successful article in terms of views. I’ve always loved it because it’s short and somewhat rowdy.
I couldn’t find it anywhere except a rogue Trump site where the Admin claimed he was the writer. I will soon post this somewhere else but for now here’s the only link I have:

Feel free to post either one.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
