Shoutout to an amazing scholar! Paris Wicker has been an incredible advocate for students at UW and beyond through her work with the UW Teaching for Wellbeing taskforce. We're excited for her and for her current & future research. https://t.co/Df6uLYERQj via @UWMadEducation

The core goal for this guide is to support incoming MTLE instructors: it's a resource embedded on fellowship Canvas page. For this reason, we've focused on texts that include applied examples of teaching principles in practice.
We've been slowly curating a guide to our favorite pedagogy-related books and resources available through the @UWMadLibraries and are thrilled at how many excellent and practical teaching, learning, and mentoring texts are one click away as library ebooks. https://t.co/DLZdpw42aj
This is an ongoing project: we're always open to suggestions, critique, & discussion. Our goal is for this tool to be useful, so if there's a text that has made a difference to your teaching and mentoring that isn't on this list, we'd love to hear about it.
Excellent session today with @UWMadEngr Chris Castro thinking about how to use values clarification to create a more inclusive learning environment. The worksheet gave me good flashbacks to @UWMadisonMTLE. Also great to do with both faculty and student perspectives in the room!
This Library Collections Enhancement Initiative through the UW-Madison Libraries looks like a fabulous opportunity to shape teaching, learning, and research. https://t.co/Loe5VVDoq6

It's the time of the semester where I find myself turning to Caleb McDaniel's lovely date-lister-and-formatter tool again and again. I love tools like this and am grateful to those who share them! https://t.co/16AYINvYSK
