@kabler Absolutely, the corporatisation trend risks eroding the quality of our institutions across the board. If universities don't shift their focus back to education rather than profit, they could lose the trust and loyalty of their "customers." Proper funding for education is essential to reverse this downward spiral. #EducationCrisis #FundEducationNow

@mojo exactly this, and the corporatisation of not just education continues the downward spiral in the quality of our all our institutions. Those very “customers” they rely on will look elsewhere if they’re not careful. #EducationCrisis Properly funded education now!

@kabler Australia's public universities are behaving more like multinationals than educational institutions, with rampant commercialisation exposed. Despite record profits and massive corporate salaries, they continue to rely heavily on casual teaching staff. Privately, university leaders express frustration over the abundance of "low quality" or "repetitive research," with one vice-chancellor lamenting "the millionth paper on gender in Jane Austen's England." #HigherEd #EducationCrisis #UniProfit.
Michael West · Australia's universities: bosses reel in $1m-plus salaries, $1bn profit on back of staff underpayment - Michael WestAustralian university profits exceed $1 billion while casual teaching staff are underpaid, and overworked and have no job security.
As heatwaves become more frequent, their impact on education is increasingly severe. This April and May alone, over 210 million children missed school days due to extreme heat. This disruption, driven by climate change, threatens learning gains and widens education gaps globally. #ClimateCrisis #Education
The World Bank found that for each 1°C rise in classroom temperature, student performance can drop by 2-12%. In Bangladesh, millions missed two weeks of school due to heat, jeopardizing their educational progress. We must prioritize solutions to protect students from these climate impacts. #Heatwaves #EducationCrisis
Innovative solutions like cool roof paint in Indonesia or climate-resilient school designs in Burkina Faso show promise. Governments need to identify vulnerable schools, implement cooling strategies, and ensure continuous learning despite closures. The future of millions of children depends on it. #SustainableEducation #FutureGenerations
Why TF is a #homeschooling advocate who regularly calls for the death of Democratic presidents being considered for the job of #school superintendent for the state of #NorthCarolina? This is like making #RFKjr the head of the #CDC. Well, add NC to the list of states that are dead to me.
