Just finished teaching my last day of class. We had daily Darby Ducks to create a fun atmosphere & thank students for contributing in discussion. Got a lovely affirming comment: “you didn’t teach as many details about content but what we learned is more important for everyday *life*.” That’s a win!🎉

So excited that my copy of @liznorell.bsky.social’s arrived today! As soon as I’ve submitted grades for this semester I’m going to jump right in!

It was my genuine pleasure to present for @ctale.bsky.social at University College London, having been invited by @paramachaudhury.bsky.social to talk about how teaching based on what we know from the science of learning can help us advance equity in every class. Thank you for having me!

Mental health puppies on campus today! It’s great to see such joy among the college students getting some gratuitous playtime and cuddles 🤩

I’ve always loved the idea of Thank-a-Prof programs to help faculty realize how much they are appreciated by their students. Here at Mizzou we do this — imagine my surprise when I got a Thank You! (Not currently teaching college students) Does it count if it came from my daughter, a sophomore here?🤣

@lindsaymasland.bsky.social I don’t know if I’m connected with your lovely colleague Tracy but you gotta tell her I reached out to her wild animal vet friend Ally!! Is Lillian Nave here? We gotta let her know too!

Congratulations to my amazing friend and colleague Isis Artze-Vega for a wonderful closing session about the importance of relationships, trust, and belonging for student, faculty, and educational developers. We missed you, Peter Felten! Thank you for your work and we’re holding you in our hearts ❤️
