👉 If you have 10 seconds, sign up for email updates here: paperstars.org
👉 If you have 300 seconds (5 minutes), complete the survey here: www.paperstars.org/building-pap...

It really helps. Even if you mute me again (I hope you don't)

hm should have checked the hashtag first... let's go with #RShiny

💫 Anyway, that's enough for now. My timeline is less lonely and you know a bit more about me.

Looking to formally examine the proposed benefits of using this scaffolded learning approach via BlinkR soon!
10/➡️

collect the data, carry out analysis in a scaffolded R environment, and interpret the results. Accessible via any device. We (@melanieistefan.bsky.social and I) have run a version of the analysis section with one cohort and gotten some positive student feedback.

BlinkR is a tool for educators to run an experiment, allowing students to design and plan an experiment (in this case, specifically measuring blink rate in response to a stressful video vs a neutral video - but it can definitely be adapted to anything),

👁️ Most recently I have been working on an educational shiny app that, enigmatically is called “BlinkR” as per popular naming R-things conventions. It is still a WIP, but then, what isn’t?

👩‍💻 speaking of shiny, I am (like most I’d wager), a self-taught #shiny (for R) enthusiast and am always looking for ways to create new and exciting tools with shiny. also excited to develop my skills!

3. 👩‍🔬 Metascience: I am interested in all things #metascience, learning from our mistakes and working towards an open and trustworthy scientific culture. I am working on something exciting (for me and hopfully for you too) so stay tuned!

2. 🔬 Depression as a research topic: Admittedly, this one is still a little vague. Largely because I have ideas, but they are still germinating and it's still too scary share my thoughts out loud
4/➡️

1. 👩‍🏫 Educational Work: I am interested in being an effective educator and science communicator, and helping students at all levels. Also, developing educational tools.

✨ like a distracted magpie, I am attracted to anything *shiny* that piques my interest
🖌️ in broad strokes my interests can be broken down into three pillars
1. 👩‍🏫 Educational Work
2. 🔬 Depression as a research topic
3. 👩‍🔬 Metascience
