As multiple of our project sites in Kenya and Zimbabwe go on a term break, it is time for us to engage in critical reflection this month! As a first, we are both humbled and excited about winning the Commendation from REES AAEE 2021.
Love this thread and thinking about how this started so many collaborations and areas of inquiry. Thanks @AndrewDeanHo !!
What I always called "my MOOC hobby" led to what are still my top 3 cited publications: big, descriptive pieces that reconceptualized MOOCs, "they're not 'students'; they're not 'courses'," with @jumpbean83, @bjfr, @nesterko, and many others. scholar.google.com/citations… 2/8

looking forward to making sure the civics literacy requirement highlights how people in power routinely supress democracy because they want to remain in power....
#facultydecide
NOW it's done. It took less than 30 seconds. That's apparently the lesson of civics literacy - suppressing dissent is much faster than democracy. #facultydecide
A good example of how not to demonstrate civics literacy...
#facultydecide
Wow. Zero. discussion. and zero. mention. of significant faculty resistance, the @LifeAtPurdue BOT just passed the civics literacy requirement. Outrageous. What an education in civics literacy. #facultydecide

Whew. I’m sorry but folks saying the outcomes of elections don’t matter... that just isn’t true. There’s already about to be material change in the lives of many people. And yes, we can & must push for more.
