I am so proud to be a member of this organization @cec-ted-policy.bsky.social #cec2025

Her face - the face of my bulldog giving major side eye - is exactly how I feel right now. I can’t believe I’m watching this.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

So this is horrible - contact your representatives - tell them why this is wrong on so many levels! www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from my home to yours

When you are reading students final papers and one says "the National Reading Panel claims that systematic phonics programs are super good at enhancing literacy outcomes" Good to know...*smackshead*

Question for my #HigherEd folks. Do you have any good formats you use for students to give each other feedback on their work? I want something more than "Glows and Grows" but not as heavy as a peer review that we would do for a journal. For Senior UG Ss portfolio reflections

So how are higher ed people using AI in your classes? Are you using it to help with grading? Creating quizzes? Looking for any and all ideas! I've been playing around with Brisk and Magic School.

Hey @academic-chatter.bsky.social #specialeducation folks - does anyone have an online funded M.Ed. in SPED program? Potentially one with a BCBA? Or someone in Georgia who might have one? I have an amazing candidate for you but want to find her a funded program if possible.

Have any of my #highered friends on here done any research with their undergraduate or graduate students using #VR in the classroom? Looking to put together a survey for these students as we are going to start using it in the spring and want to get some research around it.

Need to start posting on here more but for now...must - Rest because I have Covid - Renew CITI modules - Finish all of the grading You know because all of the above equal a great time #higheredlife

Okay getting started here and looking forward to hearing from other #SpecialEducation Professionals and #highereducation folks
