That’s so strange! It doesn’t LOOK like you were shadowbanned?

O.k. I get it. You’ve found a study that’s got you excited, but you can’t really talk about it with any authority because it’s not finished and there is no data or final conclusions to point to.

Policing is, but I haven’t advocated for policing. I’ve advocated for notation, which is not punitive. This is basic science - you gather data, and then you assess it. You CAN gather that data by measuring policing occurrences, but I don’t think that’s very helpful, and it’s not something I’ve advocated for.

A curriculum is something that shows up on a syllabus, not whatever interaction you want to retroactively frame as valuable in some way.

The idea that dress code “corrections” can be made in some vacuum where they carry no judgment on or negative connotation to the student is absurd.

All I can say is that, while I have applied it to Boy Scouts, the system was developed and designed outside of Boy Scouts, and is in practice working mostly the same (the major difference being that the schools I know where it’s practiced, they don’t have uniforms, so it is applied to regular wear).

You want to quote me a source on that? Because from the start I have dismissed punitive dress codes as a bad idea.

Oh, I’m plenty embarrassed enough. It’s a pathetic, shameful exercise in a grotesque bastardization of personal pride that ends in a futile whimper, regardless of who spoke the last word.

I guess we have a fundamental difference of opinion on what constitutes curricula. I firmly believe that every second of every day (exempting intensive situations) is an opportunity to learn, and thus there are teaching tools that are applicable to general life, rather than a specific subset curriculum, like Math or…

Another dismissed reply to GearoidDubh:

It’s also been done elsewhere, outside of China:

My previous reply to GearoidDubh got dismissed, so I’m reposting here:

Definitely seems like it, what with trying to hide comments you don’t like, and all.

Whoops! Looks like my response got dismissed. I’ll go ahead and repost it as a response to myself, as that seems to stop unnecessary dismissals.
