As near as I can tell, all the planners for how we react on campus to COVID-19 are administrators, faculty, and staff. Um... who could we be missing... Nah, I'm sure that's everybody who is impacted.

*sigh* As "use Canvas for all" is too much for many faculty to transition to online work for COVID-19 closures, "just email your students" is too little. Sorry not sorry, but you can't tell me your job can be immediately reduced to a correspondence course overnight. D'oh!

I've been asked for input into our "prepare in case of possible COVID-19 shutdown" plan, and my boss seems shocked that I'm not suggesting "everyone should start using Canvas." Plans need more nuance that a one size fits some solution.

Upon checking accessibility for somebody's 258 page syllabus, I have this to say: Remember all those EULA you agreed to for basically every piece of software and service you use? THAT is how students perceive your syllabus. #SimplifySyllabi

Administration is looking for costs they can cut, but they don't seem to like my suggestion that we stop paying for online quiz proctoring and plagiarism checking tools. Why have an academic code of conduct if we assume students will violate it? Why can't we trust the students?

I really try not to judge. But if your Inbox has 11,652 unread messages, and when you scroll through it looks like 75% of your messages ARE read, I don't sympathize when you complain you can't find the message you're looking for.

Ultimately, if Nudge pans out, just replace the To Do list, okay? #InstCon Let's avoid app sprawl please.

If quizzes are so heavily shared via Commons, will Quizzes LTI work that way! #InstCon

Syncing courses offline would be great for our students on reservations too. #InstCon
