I asked my #MacIntroPsych class today and received 100s of posts with words of advice to my daughter on #iwd2021

As a #MCU noob, I jumped into #WandaVision and got mesmerized by the creativity. At e4, I accidently turned on voice-over description during the credits and assumed it was an interesting narrating choice that would soon be explained. By e6 I realized what I did🤔

I'm very excited to collaborate with our program members in the McCall MacBain Postdoctoral Fellows to offer an exciting new course this spring semester: INSPIRE 3EL3 (CO1)Perspectives in Science: Behind the Scenes

Found my home office baited with pranks and traps set-up by my 9 year old. Who does she think she is dealing with?

Personal update: Had my last #MacIntroPsych lecture of the term last night and I'm treating myself this morning to a homemade Shakshuka pizza with bacon. That is all.

The Silhouette A "HiFlex" model of teaching that offers in- person and online options will require overcoming pedagogical challenges, but I'm convinced that creative planning and supporting resources can make this the standard model as we move forward to a new norm in university education.

Avis Favaro McMaster University Nothing can replace the excitement of a live classroom. But...during the pandemic I made several conscientious decisions to "liven" up my online lectures. I had 2 online TAs that subbed as volunteers for demos, I asked provocative Qs and highlighted replies, had AMA sessions.

Review week for #MacIntroPsych and I advise students to trust the study process you have invested in and block out last minute chatter of everyone gathering at the MidTerm. Listen to an inspiring playlist instead. I like the (original) Superman theme. What song do you suggest?

Just getting ready to teach today.

Your teaching can grow with thoughtful feedback from students. Some of the "anonymous" notes I was given mid-lecture from my 11 year old and her friends who sat in on my lecture on Attention today.
