A great opportunity for anyone interested in getting into faculty development. We are deeply invested in providing a supportive environment with many opportunities for growth and autonomy.
@whats_opera_doc@SusanDebraBlum This is when I try to convince you not to grade 😀 Once students aren’t graded the box is less important.
I somewhat use the TILT model, describing what success could look like (but there are multiple ways to be successful including a failed output that they learned from)
@Chris_C_Barber Schools will win when they embrace trusting students and offering autonomy rather than succumbing to fear and viewing education as adversarial.
I’m excited to have students use chatgpt in my class
Submitting student work to tools that will tell you whether it was written by an AI or not is merely adding to the library of future AI tools.
Additionally it’s distributing their intellectual property to companies that will profit from it without permission or compensation.
@jessicazeller Yes! this was the best improvement for me going from blackboard to D2L. Everyone else talks about how confusing setting up the D2L grade book is and I’ve never done it.
@kuangrf Don’t be a Jiang even if you were the rare student who succeeded in learning from one.
Or more positively trust your students, care that they learn and let them know you care and want them to succeed.
@joshua_r_eyler Thanks for clarifying I had little doubt that you had much more detail. I’m thinking particularly about a large group on my campus that has embraced collaborative assignment grading and I want to celebrate that work as well.
@joshua_r_eyler I like the term, but I fear if it doesn’t distinguish collaborative grading on individual assignments from holistic student-reflection led grades (how I use ungrading). Having done and written about both I experience them very differently and I think students do too.
If @NYTimesGuild members don't have a deal soon, we’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Pull out a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.
If you are interested in college teaching/faculty development, please consider applying to join us at Purdue's Center for Instructional Excellence: https://t.co/8MaVct647e. Lots of exciting opportunities coming up and a great environment. Please share widely too! #facdev#sotl
@tengrrl All of the big assignments in my class are shared with other students for discussions, so part of what they should consider when assessing their work for the semester is whether they shared at a time that enabled peers to engage with their work.
@avblanch Sending our best wishes. Some of my favorite recent audiobooks are:
