Not in love with "grumpy" being used to describe the end-of-semester burnout (speaking of naming things) but some good ideas and reminders for scheduling in future.

Retrieval practice is really important for strengthening memories.

But what about the way students first *encode* new memories? 🧵

I am once again begging people to stop using the phrase "Quiet Quitting". The implications and impressions are so SO different then "Work-To-Rule".

[Jathan Sadowski @jathansadowski]

I did not know the capitalists' meltdown over "quiet quitting" is actually about people only doing exactly the job they are contracted and paid to do. I legit thought it was about people doing work slowdowns, withholding efficiency, etc.

"Trauma Informed" does NOT mean "I have trauma, so I can relate."

"Trauma Informed" does NOT mean "I'll be 'extra nice' because people have trauma."

I am now old enough to have seen the rise and fall of MOOCs, feels like predicative analytics may be on a similar pathway.

@brennacgray It feels like Proctorio is trying to fit in with normal people and failing?

“Colleges are not cheap [...] When you add in the cost of the learning materials, you impact students’ ability to pursue their true interests, and you really start creating a have and have-not kind of environment.”

I nearly cried during a Zoom lesson when discussing the cost of textbooks as an unacceptable burden and students should have access to open resources.

Then, because I hate myself, I watched the video to convince myself it wasn't *that bad* and the students likely didn't notice.

Is anything just face-to-face anymore?

I did something very scary today. Last week, I gave an exam that I felt was pretty straightforward. However, my students were very upset, as they felt that it was too difficult.

I cancelled today's lecture and let the 220 students share their feelings in class. 🧵

@KieranJForde I've been trying to make it work on my work computer and no dice. But I love that this is a thing and I will figure out how to force it to work!

[Stephanie Boychuk @Sboychuk88]

Yes, because stress and anxiety make details difficult to remember and we all need to be gentle with each other please.

If anyone out there is interested, here's the "cheat sheet" that I've been using in all of my classes to teach students how to read academic articles without reading every word. This was given to me in grad school, and I've been using it with grad/undergrads ever since.
