@siwelwerd Wait until you discover the foodstuffs that they call andouille sausage (at least in the Midwest).

@vijisathy @IsisArtzeVega @Flowerdarby @BMDewsbury @lrningsanctuary Very excited a physical verson is available! And a certain toddler is in for some exciting new pre-bed reading.

Look what arrived today? Can’t wait to dig in to this resource! Kudos @IsisArtzeVega @Flowerdarby @BMDewsbury @lrningsanctuary 👊🏾

I’m afforded the ability to play with my own identities with little fear of ontological harm

@whats_opera_doc @SusanDebraBlum This is when I try to convince you not to grade 😀 Once students aren’t graded the box is less important. I somewhat use the TILT model, describing what success could look like (but there are multiple ways to be successful including a failed output that they learned from)

@dan_guberman @SusanDebraBlum I use rubrics because students feel better with them, but I don't especially like them. I try to get students to think creatively---"outside the box" as it were---and rubrics are just boxes for them to think in.

I’m starting to get the same feeling in my stomach about “rubric” that I get from “evidence-based.” A bad feeling.

@Chris_C_Barber Schools will win when they embrace trusting students and offering autonomy rather than succumbing to fear and viewing education as adversarial. I’m excited to have students use chatgpt in my class

Submitting student work to tools that will tell you whether it was written by an AI or not is merely adding to the library of future AI tools. Additionally it’s distributing their intellectual property to companies that will profit from it without permission or compensation.

@jessicazeller Yes! this was the best improvement for me going from blackboard to D2L. Everyone else talks about how confusing setting up the D2L grade book is and I’ve never done it.

@kuangrf Don’t be a Jiang even if you were the rare student who succeeded in learning from one. Or more positively trust your students, care that they learn and let them know you care and want them to succeed.

@joshua_r_eyler Thanks for clarifying I had little doubt that you had much more detail. I’m thinking particularly about a large group on my campus that has embraced collaborative assignment grading and I want to celebrate that work as well.

@joshua_r_eyler I like the term, but I fear if it doesn’t distinguish collaborative grading on individual assignments from holistic student-reflection led grades (how I use ungrading). Having done and written about both I experience them very differently and I think students do too.

Pls RT! The 2023 Grading Conference is issuing a Call for Session Proposals. A session will typically be an hour-long portion of the conference with several speakers. #AltGrading #Grading4Growth #Ungrading #t2gchat #SBG #AlternativeGrading (1/3)

If @NYTimesGuild members don't have a deal soon, we’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Pull out a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

If you are interested in college teaching/faculty development, please consider applying to join us at Purdue's Center for Instructional Excellence: careers.purdue.edu/job/West-Lafay…. Lots of exciting opportunities coming up and a great environment. Please share widely too! #facdev #sotl

@LindsayMasland But then I can’t start each one by telling the students how bad the name is…

@tengrrl All of the big assignments in my class are shared with other students for discussions, so part of what they should consider when assessing their work for the semester is whether they shared at a time that enabled peers to engage with their work.

Q for #ungrading folks: I have a grace period for work until the end of the term, but frequently have stds who try to do all the work in the last week. Can you suggest ways to retain the long late policy and still get stds not to wait until the last moment?

@avblanch Sending our best wishes. Some of my favorite recent audiobooks are: Babel by RF Kuang The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimerer How the Word is Passed by Clint Smith

Stuck in the hospital with the littlest for an undetermined amount of time - please send your best book recommendations! Audio books also welcomed and appreciated!! 🙏🏻 Thank you

@Komaniecki_R We have the same book. Fortunately that’s a button he rarely pushes.

Our kid has one of those books where you push a button and it plays the sound made by the animal pictured on the button, and they're all real animal recordings except for the caterpillar button, which plays the sound of a chromatic scale on a xylophone
