@FuzzySoxRox444 You too!

@FuzzySoxRox444 Eek... I'm sorry for the stress that puts on you and whatever has made her think that's how she needs to teach.

@imposter_phd @AcademicChatter @Calendly I just can't pay to schedule basic student appointments. #money Now that I've tried this one I wouldn't go back, though. Everything is automated for me and so much more convenient for students. They can request text reminders if they want! #winning

[Dr. Shawna Lesseur, CPTD @ShawnaLesseur]

Seriously, I was so excited when I found this. Better than Doodle. Still free options. Perfect for scheduling final project revision meetings. #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter @Calendly

[Umbra Edu @umbra_edu]

If, like us, you're looking for a FREE scheduling tool to replace Doodle for coordinating finals student meetings, you might want to try @Calendly. Automatic calendar sync, reminder emails sent to students-- with texting option! https://t.co/DOg7jlCc3O *Not sponsored content.

Looking forward to hearing more about your important research, @TyMcNamee.

@OnlineCrsLady I've used game storytelling in RPGs to teach writing in the past, and it was a lot of fun. We focused on decision making, how our choices shape the world around us. (I'm a Political Scientist who teaches First-year Writing. 😄)
