Briefly pausing my X retirement: I'm glad to see skepticism re: Haidt's ecent book about smartphones inducing anxiety (i.e. https://t.co/n06glnzpiv... & https://t.co/Xc5lR4SuI1...). Tech isn't that deterministic and it's destructive to keep making that argument!
I write all of this with the caveat that I can see how overstimulation via screens is highly problematic for young children and developing minds. But judging and curtailing teen communication and mental health is so much more complex than blaming devices.
What really distinguishes an online from an on-site learning enviro? And how can the language and principles from UX design help make online learning enviros better? @eric_mazur and I discuss these questions & more in the Social Learning Amplified podcast: https://t.co/MeDy0jeYtF
I'm feeling quite invigorated by the numerous ideas for some "favorite" ways of engaging in faculty development programming. Check out what emerged from the session @Teachforaliving facilitated!

As I'm firing up social media for #POD23, I'm trying to figure out where to post/share most consistently. Here? Elsewhere? What are folks doing? Aaand if you want an invite code for the alt place that is the color blue and involves the sky, I've got 4 codes I'd be happy to share!
@jessfegg Ack, I may have run out, but let me double check!! If I have, they get refreshed pretty quickly, so I anticipate I'll get more soon and can send one your way ASAP!
I'll be facilitating two sessions at #POD23 this year, and am excited to partner with my friends Lina Rincón and @Teachforaliving! Hope to see you there!
@DrToluNoah Thanks for this thread, Tolu!! Gosh, really wish I had signed up for the dual registration so as not to miss out on these excellent online sessions. I agree that the fac dev space still has a LOT of work to do to be more welcoming. I'm sorry you have experienced that!
