ALT POD Network To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development. Quote: Though a marketer’s goals may be very different from an educational developer’s, marketing concepts can help to lay the groundwork for pedagogical approaches, such as backward design. Authors: Christopher Chen, Ian Althouse, Caitlin DeClercq, Mark Phillipson. Background: A bright sunset which lights the sky and clouds orange, and casts the ground in a dark shadow. A body of water is somewhat visible.

The self-proclaimed pro-business party has punished a business because it voiced concern over openly bigoted legislation.

Hoy besé a un hombre, nos escondimos en la obscuridad de un parque para besarnos más, pero el odio a esos dos jotos terminó con un par de policías correteándonos, golpeándonos y extorsionándonos. Ahí en plena Roma Sur. En la ciudad más LGBTIQfriendly de México.
Idk who needs to hear this. Just because someone grated a hard boiled egg, doesn’t mean you have to as well!

During lectures, I switched from asking "does anyone have a question before I move on?" to telling "someone ask me a question before I move on" and it is so simple but SUCH a game changer. #AcademicTwitter

My first book in English. This really happened. You have no idea how important this is. Writing a book in your second language. I still can't tweet in English though, de pouco em pouco....
Thank you @queer_screens @WSUPress @marie_sweetman

Fearmongering over bail reform isn't supported by the facts:
Less than 1% of people released pretrial were re-arrested and charged with a violent felony offense.

Are grades a truly valid way of measuring learning? @AniaKowalik11 discusses the ways grading can include items that "contaminate" whether we're *really* assessing learning (taking off points for being late, boosting scores for improvement over time). #RiceCTEWhatsNew
Quick thank you to the woman at 96th St who kindly put out her cigarette on the air quality monitor before stepping onto the train with me.

3,600 gun deaths a year in Texas: you can carry gun without permit or training
16 false registrations out of 11 million votes in 2020: you can’t register online, vote by mail or drop off your ballot
I’m sure many of you have heard that today there was a school shooting in Texas. But you may not know that yesterday two schools in the Bay Area were evacuated after receiving bomb threats.
My sister works at one of those Bay Area schools. 🧵 1/6
Many of our public schools’ #teachers are paid unconscionably low salaries for the work they do and dedication they have for their students.
Now on top of educating they also get to be stand-in therapists. Labor for which they are NOT compensated and NOT trained to do. 5/6
It’s time for the nation to again take a look at who it elects to protect its citizens.
Texas if you’re upset today, vote for someone who WILL protect you AND will consider the impacts of their actions on the #Mentalhealth of their (& the nation’s) people. 6/6
