@DrRossPerkins I have a lot of freedom with materials. These are all standards for AP Lit, which has a broad syllabus. I was just trying to get representative stories from my students' home areas. The banned-book correlation is a bonus

@gwinrr Do you pick those texts or does the school or AP pick for you?

As a frmr English teacher & erstwhile instructional designer, I find myself with a driving desire to develop and teach an online high school English course called “Banned Books.” Not sure how kids could take it for credit. Native Son & The Bluest Eye would be included. What else?

Twitter users voted in a poll for Elon Musk to step down as chief executive of the social media platform, in a backlash against the billionaire less than two months after he took over reut.rs/3HNa8ZC

@elonmusk I was the first person on Twitter to vote and tell Elon Musk to step down as head of Twitter

Drop a 💙 and RT if you agree that Elon Musk should step down as the head of Twitter.

@elonmusk Please step down!

Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll.

There's now a an app to help Kyrgyz-speaking women get weekly updates to help them improve the health of themselves and their babies. youtu.be/epOhmZ7jT94 instagram.com/p/Cdvrd2PqSWkO…

I'm inspired by how aggressively cats sleep.

@DrRossPerkins I refer often to Northouse's "Leadership: Theory and Practice." It was the text we used when i took the course.

I’m teaching (i.e., facilitating) our EDTECH 604 “Leadership in Ed Tech” course in the spring (it’s a class that our EdD & EdS students must take). What suggestions do you have for required readings or textbooks? #EdTech #Leadership

Considering a phenomenological study after experiencing several things I thought were urban legends: weekends. #postdoclife

@DrRossPerkins So this is what doctor-level dad jokes look like.

Flight attendant: Is there a doctor on the plane? Me: Yes, but I'm not that kind of… Flight attendant: There’s a person in Aisle 18 proposing a study that compares outcomes in online learning to outcomes in traditional classes. Me: Don’t worry - It’s not a significant issue.

Found some new inspiration at the #VanGogh Immersive Experience in Minneapolis. How could this type of presentation be applied to history, geography, and #STEMeducation ?

Whatever you're reading, it's probably not as good as "Pilgrim at Tinker Creek". Just finished it, and found it one of the most awe- and joy-inspiring books in my life. Wish I'd read it BEFORE starting to teach biology! #BookRecommendations

@thatedeguy Thanks, Shane! Hope your summer is going well!

@gwinrr Congratulations Dr. Gwin!

İ learned so much through this! Thank you!

This must have been a tough year for doctoral students. Ever since I posted on Facebook that I defended my dissertation, all the adds are for help with mental health. I'm feeling pretty good, actually.

@friesennorm Very glad. And you picked up on the blue and orange color scheme for the graphics! I couldn't find anywhere that APA prohibited inside jokes related to the colors of Figures.

@gwinrr Sounds wonderful and is well-deserved! I appreciated the pronunciation of "Hofstede"!

What does one do after defending a dissertation? My small sample indicates that you... Sleep in, Have a family breakfast, Take your daughter for coffee and shopping, Babysit the kids of the Dutch friends who coached you on pronouncing "Hofstede". I like doctor stuff.

I'm reeling. Last year, I taught AP Psychology, AP Biology, AP Statistics, and AP Calculus AB, and AP Calculus BC. All 99% asynchronous. All students received 3's or above. Average scores? Almost 1.0 above global averages. #edtech helps.
