Another reason to "do difficult things" outside of work. After returning from the Fuego Y Agua Ultra Trail 50K in Nicaragua, which pushed me to my limit to barely complete in time, many of the work tasks that would have bothered me last week, don't seem so bad now. 🙂

@BlueChipsBBN @CollegeSportsCo I was a sophomore at the time and in the first row of section 32. Probably the best and loudest game I ever attended.

@gerryswan2 @UK_COP @TheAJPE @gerryswan2 would love to hear your takes.

@UK_COP @DrJeffCain @TheAJPE Very interesting @DrJeffCain. Would love to unpack this more and compare it to the grading/reporting work I've done in this area.

Grades can be a source of frustration for both students and faculty, but there may be a better way. A new commentary by Jeff Cain (@drjeffcain) and colleagues from four other pharmacy schools, just published in @TheAJPE, makes the case for specifications grading. Rooted in mastery learning with clear competency standards, this approach aligns grades more closely with learning, instills rigor, and reduces stress. The authors also highlight how it can enhance student motivation and support the shift toward competency-based pharmacy education. If grades and grading have ever left you frustrated, this is worth a read: bit.ly/42hQlLn #PharmEd #TwitteRx

💡 Could a chatbot be your next teaching assistant? @AACPharmacy's Technology in Pharmacy Education and Learning SIG awarded @DrJeffCain and Aishwarya Rajan (PharmD ’24) with the 2025 Publication Award. 🏆 Their article, Proof of Concept of ChatGPT as a Virtual Tutor, published in @TheAJPE, shows how a set of structured ChatGPT prompts built in under two hours helped pharmacy students improve their understanding of course material and boost exam confidence. It’s a glimpse into how AI tools can be integrated into teaching, learning, and assessment to enhance student success. Read here: bit.ly/4lmkDDg #PharmEd #TwitteRx

Social media platforms are designed to maximize time spent on them. That means elevating content that provokes strong emotional responses, especially outrage. The more incendiary the content, the more likely it is to hold us captivated. humanprogress.org/we-live-in-spl…
