This was a great hands-on activity that got kids outside and learning more about their own land… to think about occupation over time so you can be better at relating your community today to the whole complexity of the past. youtu.be/GgbS_TfDdDk?... @stacyaallen.bsky.social

Love finding out something I never knew (or forgot and refused to remember!).... Greek and Roman statues were not white. www.npr.org/2022/07/12/1...

We know Greek statues weren't white. Now you can see them in color.

A new exhibit in New York shows what the statues ACTUALLY looked like.

Humans are good at selectively ignoring things, not so much for robots. Interesting notion of the frame problem and how for AI it’s still a problem. www.facebook.com/reel/1120954...

Just something I used to think a lot about myself a while back, but have forgotten about. For me it was the real paradigm shift that the Internet brought on and something I’d love to share with students someday. Saving it here for when that day comes. Kind of funny too! youtube.com/shorts/sTtmC...
