Got myself a great new #Secretlab chair to upgrade my setup from "covid PhD student" to "remote professional"!
(And I get 2 extra warranty years for sharing this with everyone 🙂).

@ashhufnagle1 Used conference submissions as waypoints with a hard deadline. I used different conference deadlines throughout the year and planned what piece it was reasonable for me to have by then and then looked towards that smaller goal as opposed to the whole thing.

Excited to have presented some of my dissertation work at @isls2022! I have a poster and a talk that took place today. I have posted the documents for asynchronous viewing in Whova and welcome people to post questions. Let's talk about how classroom practices are sustained!

@MrJoeMilliano I really enjoyed using the When We Left Earth series!

[Laura Zeller, PhD @physicsedu2]

Thank you Don! It's been a wild ride!

@Rishikaye I agree with the jazz hands interpretation and used it that way for quite some time.

[Laura Zeller, PhD @physicsedu2]

This a great opportunity to any grad student who identifies with the Learning Sciences community! You don't have to be part of an LS program to join. Serving on this committee has been a great experience this past year! I encourage people to nominate themselves!

[ISLS_ILSSA @ISLS_ILSSA]

📢 Want to get involved?! 📢The International Learning Sciences Student Association (ILSSA) was created for students, by students, and we invite nominations for student members of ISLS to serve on the committee. For info on nominating yourself of others: https://t.co/PuBWtgGhM2
