Thank you Allison! I'm looking forward to joining the faculty at Christopher Newport in the fall. So excited for this chance to keep teaching and doing research on the issues I care about! @CNUSociology @CNUcaptains

So pleased to announce that Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore just accepted a tenure-track position at Christopher Newport Univ. She is a rock star & I am glad her new dept seems to think so too. Hooray for fabulous early career scholars! She makes the future of sociology look bright

I've worked with AAT in the past - I chose them based on their business model but their transcriptions are also the highest quality ones I've received! I recommend them highly to my fellow qualitative researchers

Thank you to Dr. Ana Campos-Manzo for organizing this visit and @HCPICA, @CCSRE1 and the departments of sociology, education and GSIS for funding! Special shoutout to the SOC 354 students for welcoming me to their seminar and asking excellent questions! 2/2

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

Presenting on your dissertation in the same room where you gave your first research talk as an undergrad = a true full circle moment! So grateful for this opportunity to return to @ConnCollege, see with my undergraduate mentors and meet current students! 1/2

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@fargreenland Congratulations Fiona!!!

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@JoselyneQV @mrafalow @annejonas Thank you!!! And thanks for the great question - loved getting to talk more about students' experiences!

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

Huge shout out to @annejonas for both taking the lead on our ASA presentation and facilitating my online participation - truly the best collaborator!

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@johnsonpalomaki I haven't used it in an entirely online class, but I loveeee Perusall as an online discussion forum - students comment directly on the readings. Encourages better reading and I've seen students have really good convos https://t.co/Y1AKFTEqiR

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@AnnOwens_ Thank you! Brooke Dinsmore. . I'm a sociologist of inequality, culture, youth and education. My two interconnected lines of research focus on youth relationships with adults and digital technologies. Website here: https://t.co/xeonnYcE1s

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@johnsonpalomaki oooooo what a great class topic!! I really love the podcast "Crime Show", which actually deconstructs the crime podcast format to tell stories in a more sociological way. their tagline is "Not a crime show"; might be useful as a contrast!

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

Great find! And even without naming surveillance society, it creeps in - e.g. the mother using Schoology to manage her daughter's grades and the various forms of surveilling social media...

[Allison Pugh @allison_pugh]

This was the main point in our SocForum piece @btdinsmore (https://t.co/Japf5IdS1P). Missing: surveillance society

"By many markers, kids are doing fantastic & thriving. But these important trends in anxiety, depression & suicide stop us in our tracks.”

I can tell ASA submissions are due today because I've reached the point where I have so many tabs open Chrome is giving me a sad faced error message. Does anyone else require 20 tabs of memos, outlines and open articles to write an extended abstract? It can't be only me, Chrome!

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@zra_research From my perspective, it's been extremely helpful! We've always had a range of subfields and stages in the program in the advising group, which allows you to learn about the later stages of the program earlier on and be exposed to multiple ways of approaching the same docs, etc.

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@zra_research My advisor does group meetings! We meet about once a month, starting with a check-in where everyone talks about what they've been working on and what they'd like to accomplish in the next month. We then spend about an hour and a half workshopping one person's work.

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@bosley_smith I'm in the exact same situation - navigating a breakthrough case, teaching, job market and dissertation. It's tough out here - you're not alone!

[Brooke Dinsmore @btdinsmore]

@JaimeHartless One way I saw high school teachers do this during hybrid teaching was by using Padlet; basically you can share slides through it and students can apply post-it notes (or comment to shared post-it notes) that are on the slideshow. Works especially well during discussions!
