More reminders - today w/ Clemson Teagle Found. fac wksp: for key outcomes in life, stu major matters less than breadth of study & meaningful discussion with professors & peers. @HumanitiesCu @TheBUHub @KateDMcConnell @mjbeers1 @bethmcmurtrie chronicle.com/article/repair… #GEEP #GenEd

Thinking about this all day. In a multi-week co-curricular program for #STEM students, reflections showed they are often reticent to take risks. Makes me wonder how different their education (& creativity) would be if feedback >> grades. #AcademicTwitter

What a concept! That the instructions for assignment would make sense and help you know what you need to do to complete that assignment! #GEPA23
.@cjdenial shares samples of a writing assignment. Check out the after! This allows students to contribute to the process and builds trust. #GEPA23

These ribbons are 🤩! I feel like the Mean Girls trying to make “fetch” happen. (But the #GEEP ‘s want to let everyone sit with us in the caf.) #GEPA23

Talked to a woman in airport line who made brownies & is visiting boyfriend for the weekend. Note I left my spouse this am: “Just found a pile of dog vomit and didn’t have time to clean it up. Love you!” This is what 20+ yrs of marriage looks like.

Had a dream last night about the VALUE rubrics. “Inquiry and Analysis” in particular. #Geeps get it. @KateDMcConnell

Very excited for our "Civic Engagement and Voting Rights Teacher Scholars" starting this summer @ClemsonUniv & @HumanitiesCu! Many brains in the @facultynetwork and #StudentVote spaces made this happen! Website for cohort 1 will be up soon! news.clemson.edu/clemson-to-…
