@aliciamrich @yourewrongabout @S_poindexterus I just saw that Ologies has a Biological Anthropology episode, I haven't listened to it yet, but it's a great podcast overall.

Is degree of #sociality associated with reproductive #senescence? A comparative analysis across birds and mammals

What behavior data collection apps do you use? I started this spreadsheet with info about cost, platform and features, to aid in deciding what to use in classes and research. Please feel free to add or edit. https://t.co/E44XFw5XyY

[Anna Young @AyoungDr]

@ppebs I made this to try and organize my own thoughts about what app to use in class, feel free to add to it or edit! https://t.co/E44XFw5XyY

@NCKobis @UvA_Amsterdam @NPRLifeKit Same to you, let me know what tips you come up with!

[Anna Young @AyoungDr]

Trying out having students make a podcast instead of writing a research paper in my Animal Behavior class this term. Excited to see this article!

[Dan Quintana @dsquintana]

Our new article on how podcasts can benefit scientific communities has just been published in @TrendsCognSci 🎉

@jamesheathers and I also share some practical tips for how to start your own scientific podcast

@NCKobis @UvA_Amsterdam Turns out my students had never listened to a podcast! So lots of scaffolding- evaluating @NPRLifeKit Study Strategies episode to tie in metacognition, using https://t.co/CiQkpbmh3d

A college class had 2 teachers: one male and one female

At the end of the semester, the students scored the male higher on course evaluations, while the female got FIVE times as many negative reviews

There’s just one problem: They were the SAME person.
