I want to be good; is that not enough? (Asst. Prof. at @IowaEnglish and @GWSSIowa. Columnist at @chronicle. The Missing Course out now from @harvard_press.)

[David Gooblar @dgooblar]

As I may have mentioned, my book comes out tomorrow(!)

It’s called The Missing Course: Everything They Never Taught You About College Teaching.

It’s for college teachers, from graduate instructors on up to the most experienced full professors.

I hope you’ll read it.

[David Gooblar @dgooblar]

@perpetua Yeah it’s more like let’s prove the haters RIGHT

[David Gooblar @dgooblar]

@perpetua Kinda like “Something to Talk About”!

[David Gooblar @dgooblar]

@ericdharvey It's what I tell people to start with (when they ask me). It's short, it's basically perfect, and if you like it you get to continue on with the Zuckerman series.

@ericdharvey Have you read GW before?

Lol “for my convenience”

[William Hennessy @TeacherHennessy]

Frustrated by this IHE opinion piece, shared by the excellent @joshua_r_eyler. As a neurodivergent, former first generation HE student, in my opinion it's rife with hurtful judgments & assumptions about learner engagement and motivation. I have thoughts: https://t.co/O5UeudRpQm

@ryanaboyd Ugh. I know there's a chance that everything bounces right and this is a fun, competitive team, but it really is easy to see last place again.

@gerrycanavan oh no not capitalism

Thoughts on Twitter, Musk, and the destruction of the virtual public square.

The end may be near. No amount of snark or schadenfreude will change the fact that this situation is a disaster. Twitter has always been a mess – but also a crucial instrument to democratize America.

@matthunte The whole album is such a miracle. Endless depths.

[David Gooblar @dgooblar]

@actualham Very, very much wish I could be there to hear it—this sounds exactly right.

Time to start doing things, Birkbeck supporters!

Please RT widely!

This is so good, if only because it provides an excuse to spend 15 minutes thinking about how great Talking Book is.

[New York Times Music @nytimesmusic]

50 years ago, Stevie Wonder heard the future.

On the anniversary of his landmark 1972 album “Talking Book,” musicians who made it and artists who cherish it share their stories. https://t.co/ZcC2n7GVqV

@icpetrie Big day for Canadian music: new CRJ and Sloan!

Whew, I sure am glad there are no more Thatcherites!

[David Gooblar @dgooblar]

Pre-coffee hot take: people love to pile on Liz Truss for her unalloyed Thatcherism because it allows them to pretend that Thatcherism didn't become the very air that we breathe.
