Last week I had the honor of introducing Dr. Rafael Pérez-Escamilla when he spoke at UConn InCHIP. Bottom line: parents should be the ones to decide how they feed their infants, but the commercial milk formula industry’s deceptive marketing tactics often undermine that choice. youtu.be/YXH1tiKpKCA

Just published - study led by PhD student Kate Killion - in 2015-2018, 29% of US adults with young children were aware of MyPlate. Among those who knew of MyPlate, 39% sought MyPlate information online, and 33% had tried to use the MyPlate plan. #nhanes authors.elsevier.com/a/1jcR45KxDN...

I teach mainly grad stats/methods courses. Course projects involve proposing research question, analyzing data, & writing report. I provide feedback on assignments that focus on different parts of report, then full draft, then final paper. Happy to share assignments if relevant to your courses.

Even when student evaluations of teaching are available, I suggest folks think about other ways to evaluate & demonstrate teaching effectiveness. Depending on teaching context: peer observation/feedback, publishing with students, pass rate for credentialling exam, etc.

Or set up a google voice voice number. You can set hours when it rings on your cell phone vs goes directly to voicemail.

Ugh! I hope the gout clears up soon, and the meds help (any chance of working on the “+ stress” side of that equation?).

Helpful discussion of strategies for detecting bots & fraudulent respondents in online survey research. We use similar methods.

I hope you feel better!
