  Red State Revolt - The Teachers'...

  Thirteen months after Trump allegedly captured the allegiance of "the white working class," a strike wave—the first in over four decades—rocked the United States. Inspired by the wildcat victory in West Virginia, teachers in Oklahoma, Arizona, and across the country walked off their jobs and shut down their schools to demand better pay for educators, more funding for students, and an end to years of austerity. 
   
   
   
  Confounding all expectations, these working-class rebellions erupted in regions with Republican electorates, weak unions, and bans on public sector strikes. By mobilizing to take their destinies into their own hands, red state school workers posed a clear alternative to politics as usual. And with similar actions now gaining steam in Los Angeles, Oakland, Denver, and Virginia, there is no sign that this upsurge will be short-lived. 
   
   
   
  Red State Revolt is a compelling analysis of the emergence and development of this historic strike wave, with an eye to extracting its main strategic lessons for educators, labor organizer, and radicals across the country. A former high school teacher and longtime activist, Eric Blanc embedded himself into the rank-and-file leaderships of the walkouts, where he was given access to internal organizing meetings and secret Facebook groups inaccessible to most journalists.

  The concept of personality traits is nothing new in a discussion. It is an old story in the books of psychological literature. Extroversion is widely discussed among all of them and is a type for most of the world population. Studies suggested, almost 62% of the world population is extroverts. Thanks to them for making the world a better place though. Many theories signify that extroversion or introversion is a key material in the making of a human personality. The word extroversion is widely interpreted as a personality trait of someone who feels recharged being surrounded by people, whereas staying alone is the hardest thing for them to do. They feel lonely and anxious while spending alone time. This world and its society are largely designed for extroverts to work properly. Like our modern day schools and workplaces are really efficient for them to work. But extroversion or introversion is based on a spectrum which keeps changing in different environments and ambiverts are somewhere close to the middle. Extroverts hold a vibrant and different kind of mindset and they are different from their daily life choices and tendencies too. Extroversion is a hugely researched psychological formation and tons of neuro-scientific research and surveys are ongoing to unveil more out of them.

But when we have quality teaching and are still not achieving the results we're looking for, it's a sign that we don't have a teaching problem. What we have is a learning problem.Ultimately, learning is not the product of teaching, it is the product of the activity of learners.
