I led two different volunteer-based #tutor #mentor program in Chicago from 1975 to 2011.

Recruiting volunteers and students and keeping them involved for multiple years was what made the program valuable.

I share some yearbooks in this post. These show some of the activities that helped with retention. https://tutormentor.blogspot.com/2024/04/retaining-volunteers-in-tutormentor.html

I understand the negatives that are growing on the Bird site, but it's still the only place where I can build a list of #Chicago youth #tutor #mentor programs and use my posts to try to draw attention, volunteers & donors to each of them. https://twitter.com/i/lists/1276149804511506434

Many of these #nonprofit orgs post on LinkedIn, FB & Instagram. Few yet on Mastodon. The other platforms don't have list feature like Bird site.

So I keep using it.

@tutormentor1
Social Media is time wasting and bad for mental health for most people.
I wasn't suggesting you host your own Mastodon instance.
I'm clueless about what you are doing, but it's probably difficult.

Read some of my articles at https://tutormentor.blogspot.com/search/label/about%20TMI to see what I've been trying to do for the past 30 years to help kids in high poverty areas of Chicago

Without much money for advertising and marketing social media has been a low cost way for me to try to reach more people with these ideas.

In case you were wondering, chatGPT (chat.openai.com) gives incorrect answers to quiz questions(a quiz that is required to pass if an individual wishes to be an R tutor on Wyzant). #rstats #tutor How do I know? Because I'm a tutor on Wyzant, and I just tested openai.com. It failed. The question is... Should we all be concerned? And if so, what should we be concerned about?

maryErudis,

@blake fair. Are you saying that the current version in the browser is 4.0? It did not give me the ability to select a version, and according to the FAQ version 3.5 is still in production? Right?

blake,

@maryErudis It's 3.5. GPT-4 is subscriber exclusive.

New #Introduction for a new instance.
I am looking forward to connecting with historians and educators, along with following public affairs and soccer (perhaps with a second account). Already excited for #TeachWorldHistory chat.

This year is my 33rd working in a public high school and my first as a #literacy coach. .5 at school and independent #historyteacher #tutor .I stress #HistoricalThinking , global perspectives in #WorldHistory, and anti-racism in my work and profession development
