CETLSS is hosting a new "Slow Learning/Analog Classrooms" Learning Community. Would love for you to join those discussions, Stephen. Send me an email if you're interested!

Also, not all students are using (or even want to use) this technology. Students are allies, not adversaries.

I think this is a great time for instructors to consider a flipped approach to teaching. Have students engage with content outside class. Then have them do the work for the course during class, where you're present and available. Maybe I should start marketing my Flipped Learning workshop as such.

For reference, the Learning Objectives for the workshop are:
- Identify key challenges and opportunities AI tools present for traditional assessment methods.
- Evaluate existing assignments for vulnerability to AI misuse and adapt them to promote authentic learning and critical thinking.

As I prepare for this workshop, I'd like to crowdsource helpful resources, frameworks, and ideas/suggestions that I can share with faculty who are curious, experimenting, and/or struggling.

If you have anything to send my way, please do!

I'm facilitating a workshop in a couple weeks titled "Re-evaluating Student Assessment in the Age of AI" and I'm really looking forward to digging in with faculty on philosophical considerations and practical strategies for assessing student learning amid a constantly changing AI landscape.

It has happened before and it will happen again! Although there's something about the MM streaming platforms that doesn't like being shown on the big screen in the CETLSS Classroom. Nevertheless, I persist.

We're doing another Study Hall on April 30th. Come on over!

Perfectly understandable! We'll have another study hall on April 30th that won't be a watch party.

Oh most definitely. We usually do one or two each semester. Our next one is April 30th from 9-3!

Hey App State Faculty! CETLSS is hosting an Olympic Watch Party & Study Hall TODAY in Anne Belk Hall! Drop in from 9-3 to our (mostly) quiet space to grade student work, get some writing done, or finally get your email inbox down to zero! (Hey, it could happen!)

One on left is a black dog and above it the words β€œReality”. Below it is β€œI chased a squirrel” 

One the right is a black dog and above it says β€œLinkedIn”. Below it says, 

Proud to announce that I effectively executed a rapid-response squirrel displacement strategy to mitigate potential yard intrusions.

Humbled by the unwavering support of my family and local stakeholders.

This experience reinforced the importance of vigilance, ownership, and continuous improvement.

Looking forward to scaling this impact in future engagements.

We're big Bake Off fans in our house, and I had no idea this was a thing. Adding to the list!

three pink candles with the words " gone but not forgotten " Alt: three pink candles with the words " gone but not forgotten "

Our coffee maker broke in the middle of an ice storm this weekend.

We'll be okay until the roads are clear. Still have the espresso maker and moka pot. But RIP to the Cuisinart that got us through some wild times. Truly the end of an era.

Listening to the podcast now, which led me right here! Looking forward to watching you build your Bluesky empire.

Communicating Effectively with Students about Alternative Grading Helping students track their grade and understand its meaning

Today on Grading for Growth: Halley McCormick describes how she introduces students to the ideas of alternative grading and reinforces those ideas throughout the semester.

"Students can't cheat with AI if they're using AI [for an assignment]!" is a real thing I just heard in a meeting. People clapped.

CETLSS goes all-in this week! I don't mind it, but I won't do a workshop on the first morning back again lol.

I often remind myself (and others) that "good enough" is both "good" and "enough".

I couldn't believe it! I always cut up old cards when I get new ones but this year I REALLY cut that thing up.

Oh my therapist had previously been a CPP provider, so maybe it will only be $10 when I see them next. That would be swell. Thanks for the info!

You're absolutely right. It was a workshop I'd done before, so it went smoothly enough. Just not my best work.

Not enough people are talking about copay prices. I'm on the NC State Health Plan and all of my copays just DOUBLED from last year. And my therapist went from $0 to $50 a session. Are people talking about this and I'm just missing it?
