Your LMS clicks say more than you think. 🖱️💭
New research shows that students’ digital traces—like opening readings or requesting hints—can reveal how they self-regulate learning.

on the other hand, it's rare but i have whined at people before. but usually it's accounts that i have talked to interacted with for a long ass time and lots of times and i am like bro just follow me already

how do we feel about polite requests for following, following back/ i rarely do this to be honest and i have no strict criteria for following other than whimsical fancy or a good interaction but whining at me is not the way to get me to do it?

There are high level things/heuristics you can develop about data you haven't looked at! But yes but if you are careful you would redo the entire analysis

The difference between math pedagogical material aimed at explaining to the student and just someone's notes written in a textbook format is light and day

Also if you think Wikipedia is bad have you tried yellow springer textbooks??

Wikipedia doesn't try to explain things as much as it documents what is known.

I have opinions about this! Mostly math has the deepest hierarchical depth and width out of any subjects and attempting to be comprehensive inevitably look like you not understanding anything
