“Some People Need Killing” by Patricia Evangelista offers a harrowing, unflinching look at the rise and terrible traumatic consequences of autocratic populist politics in The Philippines. penguinrandomhouse.com/books…

Act with intention and towards your values.

There's no such thing as an ideal daily routine. The best model is the one that works for you.
Successful people don't keep similar schedules. Their common practice is experimenting to learn what suits them.
Don't be a slave to others' habits. One size doesn't fit all minds.

The absurd “Daddy Cop” comedic pre-title sequence on Season 6 Ep. 02 of “The Rookie” is hilarious.

I’ve always known that Jonathan Franzen is a great fiction writer, but listening to “The End of the End of the Earth: Essays” persuaded me he is an equally entertaining essayist.

Craving stimulation and bored of blowhard podcasts,? ⅘ of podcast listeners listen to seven hours of podcasts a week. That a lot of off-the-cuff banter and advice. How to get more value out of leisure listening? Here’s a strategy enabled me to read more:

Listening to each other attentively is a good starting point for the co-development of student & teacher feedback literacy

Although it seems natural to focus on student feedback literacy, without teacher feedback literacy, it is “unlikely that student feedback literacy can be developed at scale.” @DocWinstone @CarlessDavid teachinginhighereducation.wo…

What is the function of the teacher in the age of mechanical instruction (...with apologies to Walter Benjamin)?

As usual Adam Grant is pointing out a simple change that can make a huge positive difference.

Back-to-back meetings drain our brains. We need downtime in between to recover.
New research: even 10-minute breaks between meetings are enough to reduce stress, improve focus, and boost engagement.
Instead of defaulting to 30/60min meetings, we should schedule 20/50min blocks.

A dilemma: Should we engage with the work of scholars and artists whose reputations have been discredited (e.g. charged with or convicted of a serious violent crime?). Should we overlook personal failure unrelated to the work? Should we address our misgivings?

Listening to Jacob Collier's new album of live piano ballads is like listening to Keith Jarrett interpret standards but with Nina Simone or Kurt Elling scatting at the same time with the audience and droning backing choir periodically interjecting. Co-creative performance art.

Great talk for @eCampusOntario, @timbocop. You might like Claudia Ruitenberg's work on the ethics of hospitality in education as a way of cultivating radical openness around outcomes. I would love to talk more about how to convene and facilitate entangled, seamful, teaching.

Which universities or colleges excel at training faculty or industry practitioners to design and develop asynchronous online graduate courses? Please share a link if you have time. Thanks! #highereducation #eddev #issotl

I suspect it won't be long until we hear Sarah McLachlan's new version on Hallelujah on CBC. Come for Larry Klein's amazing Blue Note collection of Leonard Cohen songs but stay for the backing band with by Bill Frissell: open.spotify.com/album/7dcCX…

Such bad news. Bruno Latour influenced my thinking in so many ways.

This is a great thread questioning the term technology enhanced learning. As I read it I was thinking about tools as mediating artifacts. I agree that teacher know-how is a necessary precursor.
If technology-enhanced learning (TEL) is a thing, then pens, paper and washing machines should be part of it. But what work does the TEL label do? 🧵
Friday thoughts (with apologies to people who have TEL in the title of their job or Research Centre!)

It takes a lot for me to read novels these days, but Hilary Mantel’s Thomas Cromwell trilogy captured my imagination for the scope and vivid detail in wish she captured the tragedy, treachery, and humanity of the court of Henry VIII. A remarkable writer gone too soon.

I am curious what global HE assessment scholars like @CarlessDavid, David Boud, @DocWinstone , and @phillipdawson think of the ungrading movement championed by North American scholars like @SusanDebraBlum and @Jessifer: wvupressonline.com/ungrading

I appreciate how Amy Edmondson is trying to address to and grapple with misconceptions about the idea of psychological safety.

Genuine question for the #psychologicalsafety community.
How best to respond when people talk about #psychsafety as equivalent to a #safespace ? To me, the 2 notions are almost opposites.
I’m of two minds.

I am looking for excellent examples of #journalism and #nonfiction writers who have mastered the craft of weaving academic research into nonfiction narrative. My first thought was current writers like @Gladwell,@anniemurphypaul. Who else comes to mind? Why? Examples?
