I am really excited to announce my appointment to the NSF as a Program Director ("rotator") in the Division of Research on Learning (DRL/EHR). I look forward to a new way to contribute to the science on learning!
Congratulations to the My Learning Analytics (MyLA) team, including @umichTECH staff for the mention in this year's Horizon Report (pg 20). Good visibility for a great project!

#LAK21 has been the biggest LAK so far with exciting networking and informational sessions. Join us for the official 'Wrap-up and Conference Closing' at 3PM PDT. It is the beginning of an epic end. Or is it just the beginning?
Why do minoritized students experience disproportionate benefits in active learning classrooms? Join us for thought-provoking discussions at 'Keynote #3: The evidence-basis for inclusive teaching in undergraduate STEM majors'.
Ecstatic and incredibly honoured to have received this recognition at #LAK21 together with an amazing team! 🥳Customisable dashboards open up many possibilities to explore student agency and how students use #dashboards, but also bring challenges! The future sounds great! 🤩
.@Inge_molenaar highlights the augmentation perspective of #AI in education. Helping teachers and learners do better. #LAK21 Reminds me of @roschelle63 's recent piece on Intelligence Augmentation.
Another wonderful keynote to kick off Day 2 of #LAK21! Samuel Greiff gave us so many insightful questions and wish lists in his keynote "Combining Perspectives: A View at Learning Analytics from the Outside"
Huge props and thanks to the amazing organizing committee of #LAK21 around the world. The pre-events and online conversation already had the energy of a f2f meeting and I know there are more exciting surprises ahead. Also 200+ people in the opening ceremony, amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Yes! #LAK21 ACM proceedings now available in the digital library. For this week only they will be open access through the @TheOfficialACM DL, then after this week, they will be available on our website.
This is a great opportunity to work with amazing mentors. Work to transform CS education is happening at many levels @umichLSA and critical computing is going to play a key role. Focus on equity & justice makes it good to share through the @SEISMIC_project community too.
When science is not just badly done, but actually harmful. This paper's conclusion is not the message that we want any woman mentor or mentee to take to heart.
My heart is breaking as I mourn the sudden loss of a dear colleague, Dr. Stuart Karabenick. He touched many through his scholarship, friendship, and generosity of spirit.
My @umsi colleague @tawanna1 drops a powerful insight - that being evidence and/or data-driven when thinking about #highereducation in light of #covid19 suggests that we want to return to the state we were at. Do we? Why are we limiting ourselves? @um_midas
And finally, thanks: to all #LAK20 attendees and the #learninganalytics community for being flexible, patient, bearing with us and going on this journey with us together!
Stay safe, everyone!
