Have you read this piece from @Melodiekbaker sharing her son's experience applying to college? It sheds light on the greater issue of covert calculus expectations in #collegeadmissions and its impact on math education at large:

@Larryferlazzo I’m helping my daughter sign up for classes in her early college high school and it’s still mainly all online choices with little interaction and no community. The few in person classes with solid professors fill up fast.

[Larry Ferlazzo @Larryferlazzo]

Relatedness is critical 4 intrinsic motivation. Do students feel comfortable w/quality of their relationships at school, does their class work create situations where they connect w/ others w/whom they want 2 connect, & do they feel they belong to a community? #motivationhandbook

[Kris Palmer @krispclp]

@Larryferlazzo There’s an assumption -if you have subject matter expertise u can teach it. Instructors, especially adjuncts, r generally not supported with teaching training. Most CA cc courses are taught by adjuncts who have little job security & low wages given their education level. 😒

Work requirements, do not lead to permanent employment or long-term economic stability. Rigorous evidence shows that implementing time limits causes people to stop receiving benefits; it does not increase employment. https://t.co/8J7GuvKfwv

@karenraycosta On Canvas, it’s easy to send messages of encouragement to whole groups of students. If there are more than two missing assignments or they’re missing class I find out what’s up.

@karenraycosta I used the tool Mural as a collaborative space in on-line Zoom classes.

@sarahesilverman You can set up a zoom call for the class and stream it for them to watch together. Lots of instructions on the internet to to this. Not asynchronous tho.

@RichLeePhD @PurdueNorthwest @AcademicChatter Purdue - your credibility as a world class institution just sunk below zero. Your leadership is the mockery - not your 4000 Asian students.
