It's publication day in @SciEdJournal for my first solo-authored article! Proud of this one. I define and investigate "student hat" in teacher PD and find that it can help teachers to feel safe to be wrong and develop epistemic empathy for their students. doi.org/10.1002/sce.21848

Many thanks to @KateMcNeill6 and @reiserbrianj for their support as I thought about these ideas and to @OpenSciEd for hosting PD with some awesome teachers and cool materials that I studied here.

Honored that an article of mine received the @NARSTorg @NSTA Research Worth Reading Award and excited to talk about it at the NARST conference in a couple of weeks!
...and doi.org/10.1002/tea.21725 by @BRLowell, Kevin Cherbow, and @KateMcNeill6 on their paper, Considering discussion types to support collective sensemaking during a storyline unit. I'm off to go read all three 📖! [5/5] Congratulations!

I grew up in the sunset district of San Francisco. I love the tranquility, chill, and beauty of fog in my bones. This piece from @NYTimes made me long for foggy summer days running through @GoldenGatePark. You’re the best, @KarlTheFog nytimes.com/interactive/2022…

I got sent this message from a WA state science teacher today:
"Working in a small district and having been transferred from middle school to high school in 2020, I'm in the unique position of having taught the same students @OpenSciEd since they were in 7th grade. 1/4

Spent this weekend celebrating earning my PhD. Thanks in particular to @KateMcNeill6 for being the best advisor out there. Looking forward to continuing to work on @OpenSciEd implementation in MA as a postdoc with @BosCollegeOEI next year.

Now that I think about it, we should do this for the whole abstract! So clear!#AcademicTwitter #writingtips
At the beginning of the paper, the study is justified. Relevant research is reviewed and questions are asked. Data are presented and analyzed. Implications are discussed.

Dear academics,
Please stop using the sentence "implications for x are discussed" in your abstracts. Summarize the implications! That's what the abstract is for!
Love,

Hey look everyone! An article I wrote with Kevin Cherbow and @KateMcNeill6 is out in this month’s edition of @JRSTpub! I’m proud of this work on discussion types as a framework to look at how to support collective sensemaking.

Excited to announce that I have a new piece out today in @JRSTpub! Kevin Cherbow, @KateMcNeill6, and I describe a framework of three discussion types and then look at one teacher implementing those discussions while teaching an @OpenSciEd storyline unit.

As an SF native, I feel very conflicted about this. On the one hand, amazing that my hometown has done such great work to protect the populace from a deadly disease and allow students to remain in school buildings. On the other hand, *shudder* don't call it San Fran.

NEW: San Francisco schools report zero Covid-19 outbreaks after 90% of eligible students fully vaccinated, according to the San Fran Dept of Health.
