I am climbing the CN Tower in April to support WWF-Canada and I’d really love your support to help me reach my fundraising goal! Every dollar raised helps create a brighter future where nature and wildlife thrive. fundraisers.wwf.ca/s/7748/80…

So excited to be in Utrecht, the Netherlands for the International Society for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning #issotl23. Utrecht is stunning and I hope to have more time to explore but am eager to learn and work alongside my colleagues. @ISSOTL @TLI_ISSOTL

Noodle Hockey! Where the coaches hit the players with pool noodles to help them learn about playing under pressure….or the coaches simply having the best time ever. Maybe both 🤣 #hockeyforlife #fridaynightpractice

The anti-2SLGBTQIA #1MillionMarch4Children was vastly outnumbered today in cities across Canada by people who supported a message of acceptance and love. #protecttranskids #transrightsarehumanrights buff.ly/3LtcC00

I knew a prof who thought that the return to campus for the first week of school was better than Christmas. I took a walk on campus today to observe and reflect - while I’m partial to the holiday myself, the energy and excitement on campus is palpable. Happy first week everyone!

I'm at Peter Felton's talk at @westernuCTL and I think teachers / profs at all levels could consider: What are you doing to normalize that learning is hard, and that struggling while learning doesn't mean bad student / bad teacher.

I need someone to explain to me why it's easier to search an ocean for white men than a landfill for Indigenous women. How do you tell those families that their loved one's remains aren't worth searching for? The double standard is appalling.

Over the moon to have my paper with @MMistak, @AleciaCarolli, and Brad Jennings included in this latest issue of @openSoTL! We investigated whether formative quizzes at different timepoints in a course are predictive of final exam grades. Check it out! 👉 osotl.org/index.php/osotl/ar…
