What is conceptual understanding in PHE? 

Lynn Erickson (2012) defines concept-based curriculum and instruction as a three-dimensional framework that links/connect content and skills with (disciplinary) concepts, generalizations and principles. The critical elements that require a concept-based approach are; intercultural understanding and international-mindedness, practical application of knowledge in real-life situations {transfere…

still mad about this post lol so let me also say: “they taught us critical thinking in english class” is extra funny to me because there’s a genuine debate among Ed Heads about whether “critical thinking” as a discrete and decontextualized skillset can actually be taught :) so it’s pretty silly to go around confidently branding yourself as a critical thinker while simultaneously revealing that you’re extremely comfortable making assumptions about the relative simplicity of complex ideas which remain contested in their respective fields :) personally i would be pretty embarrassed to call myself a critical thinker if i also couldn’t stop myself from revealing i was totally lacking in the intellectual humility that would enable me to understand that we have yet to reach consensus on unbelievably complicated issues like how best to educate an entire population :) but i guess i was absent the day that tenth grade english covered running your mouth like an asshole on social media :)

#for someone so convinced english class made you smart you’re saying some pretty stupid shit! #i’m also genuinely curious about this person’s english class bc i went to a fancy high school and my english teachers were mostly fine #and i would not connect literally anything we ever did there to the concepts of media literacy or misinformation spotting #i would also be shocked if a majority of current high school english teachers are good at those things themselves. lol. #remember: teachers are being taught that learning styles are real and most of them never question it! #btw i’m inclined to go with the ‘critical thinking is discipline specific and can’t be taught as a Thing crowd’ #my unsubstantiated hunch is that like #being exposed to critical thinking processes in a variety of different fields #can build the kind of intellectual humility that is the most important prerequisite for critical thinking #like because i know how much goes into ‘knowing’ something historically #i know that i can’t really meaningfully critically think about high level debates in biology because the knowledge base isn’t there #and knowing that is IMO its own form of critical thinking #but that’s me spitballing based on vibes

if i see one more person in this tag mention that hunter and willow is a "straight-passing relationship" when talking about their bi and pansexuality, i will come to your house and remove all the doors from your cabinets

edit: y'all i like the fucking ship, i am complaining about people saying "straight-passing" like that's an appropriate term to use when discussing representation

#the owl house #huntlow #we should not celebrate the concept of straight-passing while talking about representation #yes it's important to have rep for MF bi relationships #but i promise you using the language you're using makes you look less progressive #i am taking these words away until y'all learn how to use them properly #'straight-passing' has a particular utility in queer discourse and this is Not It #also saw the term 'lesbian-passing' and my soul left my body #edit: clarified some stuff based on replies

im sooooo sick of neopagans thinking they invented stuff that literally every religion thats not modern american evangelicalism already has 💀 i dont care if u want to light candles in ur bedroom or whatever, but even when youre swinging at “normie” religions ur still missing like okay catholics LOVE altars. jewish liturgy celebrates moon cycles. whatever youre trying to articulate about an all encompassing divinity of universal love was probably said in verse by a persian muslim centuries ago. your american christian/atheist background is a huge outlier in the global history of religion: it’s not even that you’re missing some niche exception, it’s literally that your entire perspective on “organised religion” is based on an outlier 💀

#this woman being like wicca is awesome because it doesnt teach fire and brimstone to children. #okay. good news about how many religions believe in the fire and brimstone concept. #and wicca is a funny example because its so infamously like. culturally appropriative and downright racist #like i agree it does less harm than evangelicalism but thats just because it does less of anything...... #it's more of a hobby than a religion #+ belief in the supernatural is both subjective + literally only one of like 8 markers of religiosity that sociologists study #fixation on that in particular ltierally stems from the UNIQUELY faith-based and exclusive model of xtianity #anyway this is why i believe in religious educationand w the additional benefit of learning abt other religions might help xtians of certain #stripes to realise how like abnormally fucked up their communities are #also most neopaganism is literally xtianity-jesus like the underlying concepts are so christian but theyll still be like fuck those #abrahamic religions. like okay you honestly are just an xtian holding an incense stick what does this have to do with me

Don't talk to me; I'm still recovering from the fact that the first computer-synthesized voice to sing in 1961 - the IBM 704 - sang Daisy Bell, a love song.

#positivity #do the computers know i love them #sometimes i watch the recording of the audio and it blows me away that i can do that #like yes daisy bell was a very popular song from 1892 but the point still stands #there were a million simple songs to give the computer to sing and the one that was chosen talked about enduring love #so yes you can be apathetic about it and say that there's no point in thinking about it deeper than a proof of concept for 60s tech #but i say nonsense to that - nay i will not stand for it here. everything is deep. everything is significant #to teach a computer a love song is the highest form of humanity and i don't care if that's dumb #hot take (semi-related): computers have humanity in them. humans made machines. we gave them purpose and existence. #(that's not saying that computers are 1:1 human BUT that humans made those machines - everything out there originated because of us) #(and i think that's why i don't buy that machines are more neutral than a human especially in judgement) #(a machine has whatever judgement their people had while making it. it isn't neutral at all based on the technology we have today) #i'm not obsessed with machines but i've learned to respect and admire them for what they are #i'd say that i would want to learn about tech for fun but i'm not enthused by it like other transsexuals are

a simple explanation of the stats if you aren’t familiar with dnd

and as a bonus, maybe tell me in the tags what you think your LOWEST stat would be!

#personally I think mine would be intelligence #like as in just base level book smarts and knowing a lot of random information and being able to learn new concepts quickly #lowest stat is absolutely strength I cannot even do a single push-up and even if I worked out more I still have the body of a stick insect #I ain’t beating NOBODY at arm wrestling #sunny polls #dnd

Might've done this wrong but I was thinking about the whole vinegar drinking joke while I was waiting for this prompt. Anyways here's Emmet stepping into the Lost And Found Office for a quick break and a drink. See you guys in a bit.

#submas #subwaymasteremmet #emmetpokemon #kudari #depot agent oc #pokemon oc #monthofemmet #pokemon #pokemonfanart #Mamoru has had Emmet visit the office for a “break” multiple times but this is the time he learns what he's actually drinking #this was going to be a proper comic but that would've taken too long #it's the same base concept‚ just more detailed and with a longer conversation #also yeah he's holding a flask of vinegar‚ not sure how clear it is in the drawing #ALSO also‚ this is another drawing utilizing the jacket straps in the subway boss uniform!! #drew them before in the 09 Storm prompt with Ingo but now here's one with Emmet :)

Never thought about vampires the way you did with op vamp au thank you so muchfor opening my eyes

im pretty much always using monsters to explore neurodivergence & disability, im fond of vampires because you can always make something new and fun with them!

#op vamp au #vampasks #in my ocs world vampirism is a curse born from the god of nothingness' desire to exist. the paradox messes up ppl pretty bad #and its all about recovering from being emptied. full recovery isn't heard of and it's about learning how to live again with that new #condition. its a recurring theme in my stories and so i took that again with the op au. since my ocs one are more empty/shadow based #i really wanted to have the op one being blood (for me) and will based (cause op is all about will) and thats fun to explore #also i love the concept of mindlink ive never really seen it explore too much so i wanted to try that! and since its about disability and #trauma have it be dissociation/depersonalisation inspired #also dont vibe with the 'this is a metaphor for this' like no. this is inspired by this lets explore that shit. exaggerate here change that #make shit up entirely ect

i was looking back at my old knitting posts to check on a thing and like yeah i really did just rocket right up the knitting skill tree over the course of a few months. no wonder i'm convinced i can knit literally anything i've spent ten minutes reading and watching videos about.

my personal knitting trajectory is that i learned to knit at age 8, stopped knitting at age 16 or so, and did not knit anything more complex than circular knit legwarmers with mild shaping at that time (so i could make rectangles and tubes and slightly widen the tubes). (ok i also did one lace scarf for about four inches but it was very bad.) then i got back into it at the end of college, and my projects were lace cowl > multiple stranded colorwork hats > socks on dpns > elaborately cabled sweater (which i finished only the back and half a sleeve of, admittedly, and am now picking up again) > most of a beaded lace crescent shawl in the span of, like, five months. and then a bunch of other shit after that! i literally can just learn to knit whatever the fuck i want, that's just uncontroversially true. what a fantastic hobby

#truly an all-time activity for me who loves to learn new things and then be instantly great at them #one of my many super likeable qualities. #knitting #box opener #this was a great sweater concept im jazzed that i get to pick it up again bc i think nowadays i might not start it #bc ive convinced myself that garments are too much knitting for my bad wrists #but it's worsted! so it might be literally the same total stitch count as socks #and also. i can knit whatever the fuck i want #to be clear i think 'this thing is too advanced for [the rhetorical knitter] to knit it' is kind of a fake idea in full generality #there are specific patterns that might need a lot of scaffolding to start with bc of what they assume about your knowledge base #or that are like poorly written or w/e #and there are skills where it might be *easier* to learn to do x in a less complex form/not simultaneously with other things #but the best thing to knit is the one you are jazzed about trying to knit. imo. #YOU can knit whatever the fuck you want‚ in all likelihood #true beginners i might advice to start with something that's square for a while. like several inches of being square. but it doesn't have t #be square the whole time! if you're ready to introduce new ideas!

“this story is confusing, it doesn’t make sense, i don’t get it” maybe you need to relax and just listen first before demanding immediate simple answers. maybe you need to feel the vibe instead of brute force logic-ing your way through a story driven by pathos. anyway “[movie] ending explained” kills art and interpretation

#maybe the reason you don’t get it is because you aren’t patient enough and give up on it the second something is confusing #or as soon as something is an abstract concept or not based in ‘realism’ #learn to live in the themes and the vibes and the characters’ feelings instead of in your head!! #anyway twin peaks eraserhead ghost quartet kentucky route zero if on a winters night a traveler etc etc etc #like i watched ghost quartet with my mom & sister a while ago and as soon as it starts they’re all ‘who’s this who’s that what’s going on’ #like WAIT. just wait. just watch the damn show #if you’re still confused later google it i guess

when at the library today i picked up a book abt typography to pick up some more theoretical skills there and to no one's surprise it pretended that european languages were the only languages in the world which like whatever i'll still learn what principles it has to teach and then try to reverse-engineer applications to cn font design based on what i know.

despite not trusting the english-language resources available online to be as in-depth or technical as i desire, i got curious and googled "chinese typographic design" anyway n scrolling through the introduction to the first result, you can kind of tell it's not written with a chinese-speaking audience in mind, or at the very least an audience with some semblance of chinese cultural sensitivities bc its section headed by the words "navigating the simplified and traditional divide" goes on to basically say it's an Aesthetic Decision which. well. is certainly a way to pretend you're avoiding politics.

#mostly you get the impression bc one of the first sections is like 'so how do chinese words work?' #and goes on to explain the idea of radicals and components n stuff and it's like If You Knew Literally Any Chinese #even as a foreigner starting to learn you'd understand the concept of semantic radicals #the worm speaks #phrasing that heading as 'navigating a divide' feels like it's alluding to An Awareness of the political implications n stuff #which most people in the west are not actually aware of!! so then to go on and be like #'oh yeah simplified is like swiftly efficient and ~modern~ while traditional holds fast to its cultural roots from a bygone era' #like. this is some stares straight into the camera type shit to me. like you really didn't have to call us bygone y'know. #like i'd have been fine if they were like 'simplified is what's used in the mainland china n is thus used much more frequently' #'whereas traditional is used in taiwan hk and with older communities' like that's Fine you did it you Navigated The Divide #but if you frame it in terms of an aesthetic choice based in how ~modern~ or ~bygone~ you want to feel #then you're going to end up with people who are merely curious abt cn typography bc it's a very foreign language to them #who take that at face value. good lord #AND ALSO they have separate encodings in unicode. like just saying. they are also encoded differently and that's an important thing #you do not know how many times i've downloaded allegedly traditional cn fonts only to discover they expect simplified input #in order to display the glyphs which Are still designed as traditional to be fair but anyway. it's a nuisance.

A dumb lil headcanon I have is that Yamato was assigned Naruto’s legal guardian in shippuden. (And that before it was Hiruizen, then Kakashi, then Jiraiya) just for convenience because he’s watching over Naruto all the time anyways.

oh god. sorry my response got really long but the fact is anyone even breathes a word of yamato being fatherly to naruto and i lose my shit and start beating my fist against the earth sobbing and shaking and etc.

now TO BE FAIR. i think if anyone should be naruto's legal guardian it should probably be iruka because iruka was the one who took care of naruto when naruto needed it most, and canonically naruto thinks of iruka as a father figure so much that he like, asks him to act as his father at his wedding, and he has this whole moment as a kid

THAT SAID. i like ur ask, and when it comes to the idea of legal responsibilities, i find the idea of Yamato being granted (even temporary) guardianship over Naruto to be extremely funny and entertaining.

i think yamato would personally take a lot of pride in that and really enjoy it. i think he would love nothing more than to have a practical, obligatory tie to enable him in his desire to take care of the people he loves. i also think that he would be obnoxious about it, at least a little bit. partially because his sense of humor is a little weird, and partially because he has no idea how to act as a guardian figure.

like i think he'd say shit like "bedtime! that's an order!" and naruto would be like "oh, piss off!" and then yamato would use his scary face and naruto would get even more frustrated, and the whole time yamato would be like "wow, naruto is a great kid (if a little disobedient!) and this is such a fun game we are playing, even if it tires me out :)"

unfortunately i think, out of all the guardian/mentor figures that naruto has had, (sandaime, iruka, kakashi, jiraiya, tsunade, those elderly frogs, yamato...) i think yamato is the one he is least close with, and would least like to be a permanent fixture in his life.

i'm not saying that he doesn't like yamato, just that...i would be really surprised if there's a point after yamato gets captured, where naruto is like "man, we should really save yamato!" y'know?

i could be wrong! i haven't gotten there yet. but like. i'm not anticipating it. thats okay tho i love naruto and hes got a lot going on.

picture below is more related to the tags than the text

#yamswers #agstudio9 #sorry for SUCH a long response but i am constantly thinking about them bc yamato seems to care so much abt his stepstudent #that said. the idea of a story where yamato gets put in charge of naruto PURELY bc he has the mokuton + naruto has the 9tails #and naruto confuses and entertains tenzō #and tenzō upsets and frustrates and unnerves naruto #is an EXTREMELY funny concept to me. #especially if it happens before the shippuden timeline. now. listen. im being very silly here...but hear me out #imagine your name is [actually you don't have a name] and your ninja president tells you its time to be a ninja guardian to this ninja kid #and the kid is freaked out by you because you're impossible for him to get a read on and you scare him sometimes #and on top of that your former captain is laughing at you and the young man who was taking care of this kid is pissed and maybe jealous? #like it has all the makings of one of those wacky early 2000s movies about fail dads and their rebelious children #''THIS SUMMER...WATCH AN OUT OF TOUCH BLACK OPS SOLDIER TRY TO RAISE...KONOHAS DEMON FOX????'' #now in theatres! #oh agstudio9. now im thinking on this. now im really dwelling on it. #iruka being over all the time bc he does not like the way this is shaping out and feels frustrated that naruto's guardian was assigned— #—not based on care or relationship to the boy. but on kekkei-genkai. but trying not to take it out on tenzō whose just Doing His Job #tenzō who has to learn how to make food more complex than vegetables in a pan/reheated frozens/Survival Gruel #ah. and. and maybe kakashi + tenzō dual-leading team 7 from the get-go... :) bc sasuke needs a sharingan-using teacher :)

Im awake again and i'm still feeling emboldened so fuck it. Posting my Postal 1 self insert, Buck

He works at a local record and CD store Dude frequents, having moved out of his hometown after a pretty bad break up and now looking to find something to keep his brain occupied from the admittedly impulsive decision. To keep with the more simple designs in Postal 1 (cause they had tiny models to work with) he just wears a black shirt, brown belt, some rolled up jeans (the fun of being short as hell), and a pair of black snow boots. Additional accessories for the art being a beaded bracelet and the lanyard he keeps his keys on. (Cause he kept. Losing the ones that didn't come on one)

He met Dude on his first day at work cause his other coworkers didn't want to deal with his 'weird' behavior, so he got sent to approach him instead and the two got along surprisingly well. They're kind of a "Opposites attract when you first see them but they're actually pretty alike" cause Buck is good at masking his anxiety but the two are able to bond over their sense of looming fear and trying to cope with that. He also tends to flatter and bump up Dude a lot, kind of sensing he doesn't have much self worth and wanting to make him feel appreciated.

(Also written out text below because my hand writing is bad </3 plus a bonus "the artists i think he listens to")

Postal 1 vision

Sometimes grows his hair out.

Coworkers sent him to talk to Dude cause they didn't want to / They actually got along well / Like 4'9" - 5'0"

From up north, not used to heat :( / Got locked out of work (again)

Also paranoia prone, just better at hiding it.

(sadly some of my favorites are post 97 but we make it work-)

#postal #postal dude #postal 1 #self insert #self shipping #ive been brewing on him for a while as well as other s/i ideas but i like this one most #relating to the dating headcanons i gave. he absolutely smothers dude in pet names from cute to disgustingly sweet #hes also emotional just much more externally. theyre both very gay together <3 #thinking about my silly little dude and my silly little version of myself kissing #and of course. he is bisexual and transgender. Dude may have thought he was a very punk chick but no hes a guy #and dude gets a fun 'oh. wait hold on im gonna go home and google something.' 'what is. liking guys. and girls called.' #also if you can see ive been trying very hard to learn how to draw concept art based p1 dude hes my fave <3<3<3 #im mapping out this mfs face shape. how to draw his hair and goatee. realizing he is stupidly beefy actually

the idea of linebeck having a rabid special interest in shellfish is kinda funny imagine being link having never seen an actual fish in your life and all of a sudden you’re in some ocean that has actual fish and as you’re adjusting to this you now have to process that there are also these really weird looking kinds of sea creatures too and the guy you’re traveling around with literally cannot be normal about them

#the first time link sees a shrimp is when linebeck is slowly dissecting the thing with tweezers before cooking it #salty talks #idk man. i think its funny if linebeck is really weird about shellfish and crustaceans and other nonstandard sea creatures #loz #legend of zelda #phantom hourglass #linebeck #im struggling to word the amount of whiplash link might get from learning abt shellfish while not know much abt normal fish #linebeck seeming normal at first glance but turning out to be kind of weird as hell is a lot of fun #hes terrified of spiders but very willing to snatch like. a snow crab right out of the water with his bare hands #link #yeah sure hes mentioned ill tag him ill cover all my bases n be annoying abt it look at my headcanons #i bet link like. knows abt the concept of shellfish (boy got a lobster/crawfish shirt) but doesnt know theyre still like. real

ughhhh if only discovering new music could be classed as a professional hobby 😔.

#its one of my faaaave hobbies to indulge in if only i could talk about it and make it sound all professional like 'yeah i have an entire #blog dedicated to sounds i love and like and wish to encapsulate and store in one place that then becomes my happy go to place #and says so much about my personality and what i listen to and the energy it gives me and how discovering new music #has made me listen to so much of different cultures and countries and languages #that i couldnt ever do so before and even within my OWN cultures (indian and pakistani) ive LEARNT SO MUCH!!! #such as how sound changes overtime throughout history but some elements stay the same #how good folk music can be if you just pay attention to it and are willing to give it a try #how the east mix elements of the west into their music but still keep it sounding eastern #but v modern too so that its a relatable listen for a westerner but still firm to its eastern roots #how multilingual songs have become! how much that says about an artist trying to express themselves and their identities! #how stories are told how concepts are explored how religion is used as a way to devote something to someone close to you #how much you learn just by opening up yourself to new music and sounds!!!! how you can build entire playlists around fictional media #and characters based on the songs you hear and how you can make the two things crossover and overlap. #how that enhances your experience of consuming media!!! and makes the song and piece of media even more symbolic to you.' #ughhhhhhhh 😔😔😔😔😔. #faiza talks
