If your institution requires you to use Blackboard for teaching (like me), be aware its parent company is broke and it's getting new private equity owners whose plans for the platform, and how they'll capitalize on it, remain unknown (bet it includes "AI") onedtech.philhillaa.com/p/anthology-...

I mentioned this to friends recently as one of the few tools I use every semester without fail (for years!) & they didn’t know about it to my surprise so now I’m making sure to spread the word. I truly appreciate @wcaleb.org putting it online for everyone so long ago!
Another semester, another moment to thank that guy from Rice University who made that syllabus maker thing. I love you
