I've started my MA and I'm starting some research into what is available to support people with autism into work/higher education
Anyone out there who can point me in the right direction/research/support?

Can we get a thread of your favorite transition words?! I default to the same handful of “Further”, “While”, and “For example”

@codyjacksonAR 6 can chili. 3 cans beans of choice, undrained. 1 can Mexican seasoned diced or stewed tomatoes. 1 can refried beans. 1 can chicken or vegetable broth (can make a cup of bouillon if you prefer). Dump and mix in crockpot, add chili powder/spices/garlic etc to taste.

@MakingArguments This happened to me and my ex, and it was terrifying. Call and raise some hell, I guess? Ugh. :(

#AcademicTwitter : What's the most important thing you wish someone had told you before you taught your first class?

[TechnoRhetorician @technorhetor]

Hi #teamrhetoric, I'm a second-year GA working to improve our repository of resources for new GAs teaching FYC. In-class activities, worksheets, OER, etc that you'd like to recommend/share would be SO appreciated <3

@o0DrIntrovert0o I have my students write a community agreement collaboratively on the first day of class to get their buy in on appropriate classroom behavior. Side talk has been minimal during lectures so far, but I'm still pretty new to this.

@ccdigitalpress @PDXTechWriter - might be worthwhile to pass along to the grad students in the MPTW program

[ccdigitalpress @ccdigitalpress]

We’re looking for some social media-savvy graduate students to serve as CCDP Digital Fellows for the coming academic year. Please apply and share widely! https://t.co/K9hUIpCpZT

TIL that playing Final Fantasy III on your phone is a conversation starter -- fellow nerds cannot help but ask which FF I am playing. I feel like I have unlocked the secret level "intense video game conversations with strangers on public transportation"

@digiwonk I had shingles at the age of 36 in my groin area. I guess new moms get it sometimes due to stress. It was horrible, and I didn't catch it in time for antivirals to help. Anyway, owwww.

@kstedman Harvard offers a version of their introductory comp sci class online for free. Gives a solid overview of programming plus a handful of languages. https://t.co/6maEGJ1pbJ

@MillennialProf_ I appreciated my "gifted" classes, but don't think the label is conducive to a growth mindset -- something that I wish I had back then! But this is not the fault of the program.

[TechnoRhetorician @technorhetor]

@CurtisJJewell Congratulations!

So happy to release our site into the world! This week in #DHSI19 #CritPrax, we created a website designed to guide educators through an examination of teaching practices with an emphasis on the labor and humanity of our work. Check it out! https://t.co/SWJcpdBSDs

Have a multimodal assignment you really enjoy AND that you'd be willing to share (with full attribution to you)? Putting together a collection of cool assignments for a grad class I'm teaching next week. Will sing your praises and buy you a drink next time we cross paths
