Such a fun session. I always bring toys (Berlant’s “silly objects”) to #cwcon #cwcon23 #unflattening #assessment
Session #A02 on assessment: thinking about assessment in 3D. @fieldpeaz gives us objects to help us rethink how we assess, beyond a flat rubric #cwcon #cwcon23

ALT "A book of innovative approaches that can occur when students are placed at the center of all we know and do. Filled with intelligence, compassion, humor, and moral value, Failing Sideways is a landmark book that will influence those within and beyond writing studies, a book that will give readers joy and hope.” —Norbert Elliot, New Jersey Institute of Technology
It's fun to get a box of books. It's even more fun when that box is filled with copies of your first scholarly book. Coauthored w/ @rhetboi and Nikki Caswell. Generous support from @URIWrtRhet @URI_AS and @HarringtonURI #writingstudies #queerstudies #assessment #failingsideways

Sorry if you missed session Session G.3: Antiracist Social Media Activism with @ceci_shelton @AM_Beardsley @DesireeDighton at #cwcon2022 #cwcon22 #cwcon #candwcon. They were phenomenal. I tried to capture their phenomenality in this review @SweetlandDRC

This sentence cuts. "UC Merced continues to benefit from her reputation and visibility, yet it refuses to reward it appropriately..." Please read and consider signing this letter in support of Dr. Ruiz.
Enough is enough! Time and again we have seen Black, Indigenous, and Other Women of Color in rhet/comp and in academia be denied the respect they deserve. It's time we stand up and stand together in this fight toward justice. Support Dr. Iris D. Ruiz: docs.google.com/document/d/1…
#cwcon22 presentation on Radical Pedagogy/Radical Museogy is a wrap! Had fun catching up with #ECU alums and doc students and showing them around our VR galleries. If you missed it, check out the article in JMMR journalofmultimodalrhetorics…

When we impeached this president, we warned that he was a dictator in waiting.
I believe now what I believed then: this president is a threat to our democracy, our families, and to us.
Check out the new issue of JMMR on curation. Excited to be part of such an interesting project!

Wouldn't it be awesome if the deadline for @candwcon proposal happened to be pushed back a week? 👀👀👀🙏🙏🙏
Last week I left a motion-sensored ghost mirror in the box to trick our milkman. He left a note—first scare of the season. Tonight I left a glow-in-the-dark skeleton & Reece’s chocolate bats. Under this adult drag I am still the ever-lonely kid who wrote poetry to the mailman.
Each year when I prepare my dossier for T&P annual review, I am reminded that working class humility is an ill-fit for the hubris demanded by these academic narratives.
Glad that my rep Robert B. Jacquard, Esquire supports #repro4ri #passtheRHCA #progressive #democrats
