@LTHEchat I think this goes directly against my first answer--that I felt most engaged when not being evaluated. Either it needs to be a secret evaluation, or it needs to be somehow less stressful than being graded.
@LTHEchat A1: If I felt like I wasn't being graded or judged on my thoughts, I was much more likely to jump in--to discussions, with questions, with ideas, whatever.

"We cannot give our students access to a space free from interruption. But we can normalize the experience of navigating interruption..." Love this piece by @leilathebrave. Come for the cats, stay for the incisive commentary on the "place" of research. https://t.co/4L2Q43arue
PSA: if you or someone nearby are being brutalized by a police Spot robot and can get a hand or something underneath, grab this handle and yank it forward. This releases the battery, instantly disabling the robot.
Keep your hands away from joints, Spot WILL crush your fingers.
