I'm making this easier...I had your 2 pm talk on my agenda already!

I am looking you up to hunt you down for a sticker! ( Spent too much time already shutting down the bookreps singing the glories for AI. " Don't bother. I am a refuser....")
I signed up thinking I would be doing some selfless service. After watching the orientation,I realize how fun this is going to be for me!
Um, not living up to your name, Cards Against Humanity.
It is not far fetched to imagine that not one of the agents responsible for any part of this feels remorse, emotion, nor fear that they will be punished.
This is a great Point! Hand writing helps us retain information.
You pegged it...the secret to getting better at anything is practice, and small increments regularly changes the brain (I read a lot of neuro science for general audiences to apply to teaching writing to college students.
If you are reading books that are available on audio, I recommend listening and reading aalong.some news stories and web articles have audio options that allow you to register as you read.
I have students connect research articles way in a cloud doc, but this has so many possibilities and takes the activity off screen.
On the upside, I have a new example of unethical representation of information for my technical writing students.
And stood around in the aftermath. Not one if them rushed to immediately aid either victim. Just another day at the office.
Of course not! All writers need at least one other set of eyes on their work. You are too close to the writing to catch things you might have overlooked, missed, or think you covered. Ask friends and family to read a section or a chapter. Guide them: what can I make Clearer? What have I left out?
That porcupine needs a haircut!
I made a few notes about possibly assigning a collaborative project designing a game. This book might nudge me into it!
Thank You! I will check it out...
Thank you! I am currently freshening my Scientific & Technical writing courses and integrating board/card games as tech documents. It struck me that playing /designing games would also help build learning communities. This study will be a great example of scientific writing validating the approach!
I was just thinking about this this morning, as I found myself rushing to finish a book in 2025. It's better to enjoy the book and savor the writing than to speed through it. It's not a competition! I did set and exceed a goal for the but the important thing was that I read every day.
This is one of our family favorites...quoted in many situations...We own it on VHS, and kept a tape player only for this tape!
Every student in that class who received less than an A on that paper should file an appeal on grounds that the student who did not meet the criteria for the assignment was evaluated by a different standard that they were.

She argues that rather than replacing the need for the essay, tv television would necessitate it. "It seems inevitable that the essay," she says, "the thoughtful form with its way of stopping us with an urgent, particular voice, considering, playing out an idea, would come back with force."
Image from a book that says: An essay, though it takes as many shapes as weather or daylight,always has the immediate of a real voice, some necessity to the telling that lies close behind the written word."
And it is needed more than ever... This is from the Intro of The Penguin Book of Contemporary Essays(1984). Editir Maureen Howard responds to the idea that the genre is dead.

I have no idea how this post ended up in my feed, but this is definitely true at my house...Behold The Simpsons tree.
My colleagues and I have been talking about this expanded labor a lot this semester. Two gave up and retired this month.
I assign a synthesis this way... 3 sources we read/annotate over two weeks.Students find another source supporting their thesis. Some plug the readings into ChatGPT and it hallucinates and miswrites. Students have to rewrite. I spend twice as much time reading/ assessing.
I had one issue with Thriftbooks. I contacted them and they fixed it fast...
