Join my colleagues at Click2Computer Science for a virtual workshop (Thursday March 7, 12:00 - 1:30 pm ET) sharing learning activities for OST programs about data literacy and polar science from @PolarICE_Ed . Register free here: click2computerscience.org/blog/data-to-t…

@ResearcherRende Congrats!

@snarky_feminist I’m so sorry to hear that!

Congratulations to @ kristen_wendell co-author of Engaging Young Engineers; Teaching Problem-Solving Skills Through STEM, Second Edition! Take a look: loom.ly/Lb2KNYk

I am exploring the topic of the dignity of teachers & teaching. I am interested to interview teachers who have experienced contexts where you felt that you and your profession were accorded dignity and stories of dignity that was taken away. Please dm me if you are interested.

@ResearcherRende I look forward to your presentation at NARST! Congratulations and thank you for doing this work!

@snarky_feminist My neurodivergent 7th grader, who struggles with essay-writing, appreciates alternate tools. Thank you!

@raulpacheco You beat me to it! I was going to say prevaricate!

I also love flummoxed, besotted, and prevaricated.

What is your favourite $100 dollar word, For me: erstwhile, perfunctory and cantankerous.

@dontworryteach Yes, I update my Google docs spreadsheet of holiday card addresses every year as we receive cards!

@CaseyStockstill I know lots of people do, but I can’t focus and feel squished. I use that time to watch movies uninterrupted by my family members. Hotel rooms are great for getting work done though!

@eriningram I am jealous of your screens. Happy brainstorming!

@CaseyStockstill I did my postdoc remotely in Engineering Education with @TuftsCEEO. It worked because we were studying online teacher learning. I did miss getting to be part of the Tufts community but didn’t want to uproot my family.

Thanks @TuftsEngineer for the feature on the @JEE_Editors article "Examining interactions between dominant discourses + engineering educational concepts in teachers' pedagogical reasoning" by @natdelucca, Jessica Watkins, @rdgswanson, and @merredith_CEEO loom.ly/egEYUoU

@aaronwmjohnson 🤔 Good luck with that!

@rdgswanson Disc golf was great! So nice to spend a few hours alone in the woods getting exercise. Now I just have to figure out how to make disc golf part of my tenure case...

Took the morning off to see if a bad round of disc golf (😬) really is better than a good day at work.

Questions begin a path toward discovery, imagination & STEM exploration. How can we help youth expand their thinking & develop reasoning through the questions we ask them? This module is a great way to train staff. Choose cohort AC344PQ. Register at bit.ly/3sx2E7S
