Teachers: as the semester begins, if you are concerned about equity in student participation during class, please check out Teachly. @danmlevy and I created it to better understand what was happening in our classrooms, and I can’t teach without it. teachly.me

I just came across this book by @econdavid on @danmlevy's legendary statistics course at Harvard. I was fortunate to take Dan Levy's course in 2012. It was transformative and made me passionate about statistics. I look forward to reliving that experience through the book.
I wrote a book, and it’s out today! #InvisibleLearning is about @danmlevy’s legendary Statistics course at @Harvard. Until now, only a select few have been in the room: now anyone in the world can be part of the magic.👇(1/7) 🇺🇸 amazon.com/Invisible-Learnin… 🇬🇧 amazon.co.uk/Invisible-Learn…

Having experienced this legendary @Kennedy_School class first hand, I have always been grateful to have begun my statistics learning through @danmlevy ‘s class! My friend @econdavid has written a book about it- a must read! :)

The best professor at @Harvard @Kennedy_School @danmlevy just wrote a book on teaching with Zoom. A life saver for me. Proud to call him my friend and compatriot 🇻🇪.
First tweet in over a year. Just published book "Teaching Effectively with Zoom". In these uncertain times, let's strive for more certainty in achieving high quality teaching. I hope this book helps educators in Higher Ed & K-12. #TeachingWithZoom Link: amazon.com/Teaching-Effectiv…

Tomorrow is the 25th anniversary of the largest massacre in Europe since WWII. In 1995, Bosnian Serb forces murdered more than 8,000 Bosnian Muslims in #Srebrenica. If not for #covid, heads of state & ministers wld be gathering to mark this grim milestone & remember the dead. 1/8

If you are teaching online this Fall - in higher ed or K-12 - I *highly* recommend this book on teaching synchronous sessions with Zoom. Dan Levy is the most thoughtful educator I have ever known, and he shows it in this highly practical, concrete guide. amazon.com/Teaching-Effectiv…

I'm biased here, but this is one of the strongest visual illusions I have ever seen. None of the colored lines are moving.

"Excited praise, penned in the heat of the moment with a deadline looming… it seems this is a dangerous business." @WisdenAlmanack editor @the_topspin explains why we're right to get carried away by a performance like Ben Stokes'. #Ashes wisden.com/stories/ashes/sto…

I’ve seen some remarkable cricket moments in my life but that is the best I’ve seen in over 50 years. @benstokes38 saved the Ashes and gave a magical inspirational innings. Even better than his World Cup performance. Well done @ECB_cricket
