Told my students to be creative with their final presentations - today, I had one student present in rock opera format. #teachingwin

ChatGPT has made teaching so much easier now that I can provide it with a list of my student's names and ask what grade it thinks they should have #teachingwin

#TeachingWin: How I got my students to come to class without me. A short #pedagogy🧵:

While I was away giving my talk, I planned for my students to work on structured presentations together. I know that they work better in class, IRL, and simultaneously than when left to their own devices. (1/3)

I’ve been having a wonderful survey class this semester. Was particularly nice to have a student tell me her team had the highest score in a trivia round at the weekend because of my class! #teachingwin

In debating whether or not the United States was still a "City on a Hill," my students overwhelming said No. But one did say I made America better. :)

Wow! I just reviewed a student project that responded to the assignment in a creative, thoughtful, & totally unexpected way... #teachingwin

Inspired by Revolutionary Songs & Michelle Orihel's piece on Toasting, I had students write toasts or song lyrics based on Patriots' or Loyalists' perspectives. They worked in groups & had 15 minutes but they were creative, referenced specific historical themes or events & had fun. #teachingwin

Had a great class discussion about What is Southern History this week.

Students prepared by completing 5-to-1 Reading Notes (5 things they learned, 4 sentence summary, 3 Outside Connections, 2 quotes, 1 question) so they all had prepared comments and thoughtful questions. #TeachingWin
