The goal is to stop tethering teaching to “seat time” — where students are grouped by age and taught...

NEW YORK — Facebook elevated concerns about election interference Tuesday, announcing that it had uncovered "sophisticated" efforts, possibly linked to Russia, to manipulate U.S. politics and by extension the upcoming midterm elections.
