Big shout out to all the teachers in higher education and here's hoping more good students decide to give it a try (even with all the challenges involved).

A new academic year looms. In the spirit of fostering metacognition, consider having your students complete a self-assessment of their study styles, note-taking skills, or more. This takes the work out of it for you -- students automatically get information about responses. Try it. lnkd.in/gfawUWzC

"When I got back to class (after presenting at the symposium), I JUST FELT SMARTER." Yes, helping students to present takes time and energy but one need do no more than listen to them after it to see why we need to do it more.

Will giving your students a 48-hour buffer on assignments increase procrastination or result in lower grades? Not necessarily so!!! This just out, our assessment of the effects of an easy way for students to get extensions, and a buffer.

So many things to worry the educator. As someone teaching large classes with many students with nonbinary identities, making sure to keep walking the walk as long as possible in my own pedagogy and approach to science. Sharing it widely.

So interesting to reflect on different takes on priorities for the classroom. Was fun to play David to James' Goliath. There is more to college/class success that knowing the subject (content). These are some tough times in higher ed. A good reminder for us all to be more patient with each other.
