@IBJIYONGI Yes, what did it say??!

UC, now UA, how about it, @uoregon?

The Physics Alive podcast just posted a new episode featuring Gordon's Angela Flynn. The podcast is at Physics Alive is here physicsalive.com/underrep/ More on Flynn's work at ow.ly/vGvP30sbaaf

📣Attention high school science teachers📣 SEP in conjunction with @NSTA_XVII @NSTADistrict_16 and @NSTADistrict_15 is hosting a virtual Social Justice Workshop on The Underrepresentation Curriculum Project presented by @elissadunnlevy !

Busy semesters make sloooow progress of podcast recording and editing. But I'm getting closer to the release of an amazing episode with @angekflynn and @RiPhysKin about the Underrepresentation Curriculum. #underrepresentation #STEMed #iteachphysics underrep.com

An active voice for women in physics, Brown graduate student Farrah Simpson will conduct research related to the Large Hadron Collider, the world’s most powerful particle accelerator, as a 2022 Graduate Scholar at Fermilab. brown.edu/news/2022-02-0…

This is easily one of the most important resources we've shared: "The Underrepresentation Curriculum is a free, flexible curriculum for STEM instructors to teach about injustice and change the culture of STEM." Add this content to your course asap! #OER underrep.com

Last week, my Ss worked on taking action on Underrepresentation in STE(M). One group created an interactive poster on black mathematicians. Another created 2 library displays of black women in STEM & will add more books to our collection #underrepresentation #STEMEd #Mathematics

@elissadunnlevy Also, grades and deadlines are inevitable (and IMHO, counter to all the "growth mindset" we tell students to have), but reflection and some error analysis acknowledges these constraints and asks Ss to focus on process go beyond grades. Are redos/corrections an option?

Hey #iteachphysics, I'm getting a lot of "I just did all that work for nothing!" comments when students realize they bungled a calculation. They struggle with the "learning is messy and nonlinear" thing. Any suggestions for a one-line reply that won't make their eyes roll?

@elissadunnlevy "science IS messy! If you had an infinite amount of time, what would you do more/less of to feel differently about the outcome?"

Resilient learners recognize when they are stuck and have the language to ask for support when they need it. Most important, they hold a belief that they can “do math.” @edutopia edutopia.org/article/buildi…

When adults continue to learn at their jobs, research shows they're better at creating that experience for others. So if schools are going to be places where students test theories and learn from mistakes, those qualities must be present in their teachers. kqed.org/mindshift/5475…

Just launched the spring 2022 #underrepresentationcurriculum user cohort with @sparkscience and @angekflynn. I'm excited to learn with this fantastic group of educators from 5 different time zones!

Welcome to all the international professors and teachers underrep.com The Underrepresentation Curriculum Project – A flexible curriculum ...

Such good energy with our first session of the first ever URC Cohort with @elissadunnlevy and Shinae Park of the flexible curriculum underrep.com

.@PhysicsToday I am SO excited to read "Advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion: a how-to guide" by Rowan Thompson... ...but I'm also surprised and upset that it didn't rate a mention on the cover. Work this important deserves to be featured more. physicstoday.scitation.org/doi/10.1063/PT…
