Your members get the post with a button saying "VOTE NOW". Pretty neat. Here's an email I got from @Patrice Simoneau for his Bees community (if you're into honey, it's the place to 🐝).

Just in case you haven't noticed. Skool drips your like notifications, so that you don't get them all at the same time. I don't know the algorithm, but I know sometimes they send me the likes in a delayed manner. They try to keep us hooked that way (we get old likes that look like someone just liked something) 🤪

TL;DW (AI summary) Content Strategy and Audience Engagement 🎥YouTube Shorts can now be up to 3 minutes long, offering creators more flexibility for storytelling and the ability to upload vertical videos up to 2:59 without affecting long-form content experience. 👥Shorts and long-form videos have completely different audiences with minimal crossover, as 80% of viewers who watch videos on the Think Media Podcast Channel don't watch Shorts, indicating a wider audience gap. Monetization and Copyright 💰YouTube Shorts monetization continues to be crucial, with longer Shorts now counting towards YouTube Partner Program requirements (1,000 subs and 10M views in 90 days). 🚫Copyrighted content over 60 seconds will be blocked from playback and recommendations, while third-party claimed content over 1 minute with an active content ID claim will be globally blocked and ineligible for monetization. Platform Features and Updates 🔍YouTube is introducing AI features like Vevo for video backgrounds, trending pages for discovering hot content, and customization options to toggle Shorts in subscriptions, addressing creator requests for improved content discovery and management.

To have a hyperlink in a DM, just add the text you want to link like so: [Educate] and then the link itself (jo.my/educate) That will create a link in your DMs that looks like this: Educate Structure: [text](link) (no spaces between them) You can DM me and test this out if you want 👍 Thank you @Sarah Hankins for the tip.

Just stumbled upon this video about learned helplessness and I thought it's worth sharing. I also asked AI how understanding this concept could help us become better educators. Here's the answer (part 2 in the comments): Understanding "Learned Helplessness" in Education 🔴 Definition and Origin: - Learned Helplessness is a psychological state where an individual feels powerless to change their situation, often due to repeated experiences of uncontrolled negative outcomes. - Originated from Martin Seligman's experiments in the 1960s where dogs, after experiencing inescapable shocks, stopped trying to escape even when they could, illustrating the concept. 🔵 Components of Learned Helplessness: 1. Contingency: The belief in a relationship between actions and outcomes. 2. Cognition: How individuals perceive these relationships. 3. Behavior: Actions taken or not taken due to these perceptions. 🟢 Implications for Education: - Academic Performance: Students might underperform or disengage academically, feeling their efforts won't change outcomes. - Mental Health: Linked to conditions like depression, anxiety, and stress, impacting overall well-being.
