This is a great example of the dynamic nature of reading comprehension. So context-dependent! Sadly, all the strategies in the world can’t make up for lack of background knowledge.. #scienceofreading

@tedcruz Sir, you are a US Senator. Please elevate the bar set by rage baiting podcasters and show some basic decency, integrity, and just, like, maturity. Ugh

@HABLAlab I 100% agree and appreciate you calling out the irony! Frankly, I am as (if not more!) concerned about faculty who have no evidence of any sustained collaborations 🚩🚩😬 A continued line of inquiry that sometimes overlaps with a former mentor is… expected?!!

So why am I as a full professor commended for continuing to work with former doc students and post docs; yet they, as assistant professors need to not do so in order to establish “independence”. - make it make sense!

Been staying off of Twitter since Musk (🙄) but wow I had to tweet about @nytimes HORRIBLE take on Walz in today’s The Daily podcast. Their analysis of Midwestern voters is offensive and ignores long history of progressiveness. Walz was re-elected and remains extremely popular.

This is intolerable. We have to make that clear. This cannot be our choice. Democrats better pull their shit together and get another candidate within the week.

//Findings suggest that continued use of Spanish may be important for bilinguals' maintenance of the home language during adolescence, particularly on narrative tasks that require bilinguals to produce Spanish.// #bilinguals #heritagelanguage @Cperezosa15 Congratulations 🎉

@moorehn They have some platform sandals on sale now. I’d avoided the trend (since 1999-ish!) but these are more of a nod to the trend while still looking classic.

@prattas yup yup highly recommend! They also come with individual dust bags so you can keep them looking great in the off-season. If you're on the fence, it could be a good idea to wait for the sales they do 2-3 times a year

@moorehn Ooh I was just looking at that exact woven pair of mules 🤩 They are stunning. Happy to hear they’re also comfortable and that the leather wears well.

@prattas personally I love them. The rule is that have to size up half a size. (ie, if you are an 8, get an 8.5). I have like six pairs, all summer shoes: The slides and mules. The leather wears REALLY well and they look elegant; I always get compliments. (here with a vintage bag)

Many people are asking about donations. That wasn't my point in posting but childhood cancer is slowly breaking down my will to not ask for help Be warned, at Makenna's discretion anything you send may be forwarded to charities she feels have helped her. venmo.com/u/DanielKuhn

My daughter (now 14) has cancer. I want to talk about one of the most frustrating, painful, angering, parts of that experience. Not nausea, or hair loss, or even our health insurance. I'm talking, of course, about @MakeAWish, the worst charity I've ever dealt with. Thread: 1/

@BriceCollin I am! And we should! Minimally it could help combat the “blank page” enemy, where you don’t even know where or how to start

There is obv room for nuance here, depending on the field and the skill and the egregious of the cheating. But I try to design assignments that don’t easily lend themselves to flagrant cheating (e.g., in-class presentations, case studies). I do not want to be a cop in my class.
