Help! My AP Said “I’m Mean Because I Care” to Kids

We received a question from a teacher about a situation they were facing with an elementary Assistant Principal who seemed proud of her mean reputation. The teacher was concerned about the messaging being sent to the students. While complaining to the principal was an option, we suggested a more gentle approach by directly speaking with the AP. The teacher could acknowledge the challenging task of lunch duty and offer support instead of criticism.

In another query, a teacher was dealing with a parent complaint about the music played at a Valentine’s Day party. The parent requested instrumental music only going forward. We advised the teacher not to share the playlist but to involve an administrator in the situation. We also highlighted the potential impact on other aspects of the curriculum that involve music with lyrics.

An eighth-grade teacher sought advice on managing a rowdy class that was fixated on choosing their own seats. We recommended giving the students the opportunity to earn the privilege of choosing their seats by setting clear expectations and consequences collaboratively. Empowering the students to be part of the decision-making process can lead to better compliance with the rules.

Finally, a teacher in their first year at a new school raised concerns about the personal day policy, specifically the requirement to provide a reason for a personal day on a Google Form. The teacher felt uncomfortable with this level of detail being requested for a personal absence. Additionally, the sharing settings on the form raised privacy concerns. We suggested discussing these issues with the school administration to address the teacher’s discomfort and ensure privacy and confidentiality.

The world is constantly changing, and as a result, so is the way we interact with it. With the rise of technology and social media, our lives have become increasingly interconnected, allowing us to communicate and share information like never before. However, this interconnectedness also comes with its own set of challenges, one of which is the rise of misinformation and fake news.

Fake news has become a pervasive issue in today’s society, with studies showing that false information spreads faster and more easily than accurate information. This is due in part to the algorithms used by social media platforms, which prioritize content that is engaging and sensational over content that is true and accurate. As a result, fake news can quickly go viral, reaching millions of people before it can be debunked.

The consequences of fake news can be severe, leading to misinformation, confusion, and even violence. In recent years, we have seen the impact of fake news in various contexts, from political elections to public health crises. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, false information about the virus and its treatments spread rapidly online, leading to confusion and mistrust in public health authorities.

In order to combat the spread of fake news, it is important for individuals to be vigilant and critical consumers of information. This means fact-checking information before sharing it, verifying the credibility of the sources, and being aware of the biases that may be present in the information we consume. It also means being cautious of the content we engage with online, and being mindful of the potential consequences of sharing false information.

In addition to individual efforts, there are also steps that can be taken at the institutional level to combat fake news. Social media platforms can implement measures to detect and flag fake news, and work with fact-checking organizations to verify the accuracy of information. Governments can also play a role in regulating the spread of fake news, by enacting laws and policies that hold individuals and organizations accountable for spreading false information.

Ultimately, the fight against fake news requires a collective effort from individuals, institutions, and governments. By being vigilant and critical consumers of information, and working together to combat misinformation, we can help create a more informed and responsible society. Together, we can work towards a future where accurate and reliable information prevails over falsehoods and fake news.
