A year ago, a non-academic friend listened to a talk I gave. I thought it went great. My friend disagreed.
She said that academics are experts at making interesting stuff boring—and that we should all take a speech class.
So I did. And here are 6 most useful things I learned.

Our group is interested to know what jobs/careers members of the DBER community hold. So we thought why not just ask!

Whether it’s your PhD or a new hobby, the longer you work at something, the more chances you have to make mistakes. We often think of mistakes as a sign of failure, when in reality they’re usually a sign of effort. I’m working to remember this as both a learner and a leader.

When research opportunities have come up, I’ve used it to decide whether to go for them or not.
I can’t tell you how useful and liberating it’s been

Let's suggest some PhDs working outside academia for grad students to follow.
The more you interact e folks doing things in the world that aren't the standard things you imagine PhDs doing in the world, the better your imagining will be.
Suggest yourself and others 👇 #ff
