@eric_calderwood @RachelSchine Eric, I should have added, for film clips, youtube has you covered! So many possibilities - well known reciters from all over the world, and gorgeous surprises like this clip ❤️youtube.com/watch?v=giPlcV…

Perhaps @karlamallette or @RachelSchine have suggestions? Thanks, in advance, for your help!

I’m looking for good ways to introduce undergrads to tajwid (Qurʾanic recitation). I used to assign the documentary “Koran by Heart” (2011), but it feels dated now. Can anyone recommend materials (esp. videos or films) for talking about tajwid in an intro undergrad course?

@eric_calderwood @RachelSchine Highly recommend the app Qariah to discover new voices :)

@eric_calderwood @RachelSchine My classes are almost all Muslim students! I play female reciters to start conversations... but I ask them for their favorites to kick things off

COLD TAKE: Snowfall is not "bad" weather. Quit talking about how bad the storm is going to be and start talking about how good it's going to be.

@homophonous I feel like there is a comic opera in here with a cameo from the titular potato

In case anyone had questions about academic egos, I present exhibit 8,171,039: The author of The Social History of the Potato lobbying *hard* for a Nobel Prize for his work.
