Celebrating the late Carla Zampatti, Zampatti Powerhouse at the Powerhouse Museum is one of the best-looking fashion exhibitions in Australia.

@ajuntpalma@AngelicaPastor És una broma? Aquesta no és la part que necessita arreglar. Hi ha altres zones més urgents.

Happy 137th birthday to Earl Derr Briggers!🎂
Born in 1884, Briggers begun his career as a playwright but after a bout of poor health was advised to recuperate in Hawaii which inspired his beloved #CharlieChan; a wise Chinese-American detective on the Honolulu police force.
This has just arrived from @PalgraveLit. Thank you to my wonderful co-editor @samfordsaunders and to our amazing contributors! I pitched the idea of a sidekicks book to Sam within hours of first meeting him at a conference. I gained a great friend that day and now we have a book!
THREAD: on how to help students with "large N word" assignments (3,000 words, 5,000 words, a thesis).
I recently taught for the second time my full-fledged, 40 hours course on "Strategies of Academic Writing and Empirical Research Inquiry".
This time, I reversed my method.
