Tues March 28, 11:30 EDT! join me & my grad researchers for an open online workshop on how the 4 walls of the classroom are now wired & tripwired by extractive datafication. what can institutions DO to reduce data literacy barriers? register for free: ctl2.uwindsor.ca/openlearning/w…

Learning and teaching move on so quickly, that if you’re not continually improving, you’re getting worse. I could not teach the same way I did 15 yrs ago and the way I teach now won’t work in 5 years time. Continual reflection and iteration are a must for any teacher.

On 20 April, 3-4pm (BST), we'll travel to Canada to visit Dr Bonnie Stewart! Bonnie should require no introduction for most of us, but here is our official post & to book a front row seat: bit.ly/TEL_BStewart_0… CTEL:Lancaster Educational Research John Brindle #TELresearchers

video from today's great session with samantha szcyrek, Erica Miklas & open/online colleages on our #highered data literacies study & the questions it raises. Zoom kinks had me flustered at the start: forgot the title of the project lol! thx to all who joined :) youtube.com/watch?v=EQjizD…

for anyone interested, the slides from the talk are also here...though do NOT miss the best part of the video at the end :) the open convo has cameos from Lucas Johnson @actualham George Station + great chat contributions from Kate Molloy Mita Williams & more docs.google.com/presentation/d…

finally, the first paper from our case study was led by samantha szcyrek & published in The OTESSA Journal after our 2022 presentation - it's here: journal.otessa.org/index.php/oj/a… more in the works. we need to talk about data, folks.

The Faculty of Graduate Studies is pleased to announce the 3rd Annual Twitter-based Graduate Showcase. #UWINGradShowcase #UWindsor

🎓✔️ with a lot of support and patience from the loveliest supervisor Bonnie Stewart

ach, this came out Friday & i missed it. "it's time to demand of our vendors that we as a sector aren't going to sign their contracts unless we see this moving in a less surveilling direction." talking about all this at Congress at the end of the month! educationnewscanada.com/article/educat…

proofs are in! this ETHE Journal paper from our SSHRC project will be online soon. Erica Miklas samantha szcyrek Thu Le & i overview how higher ed faculty understand data (& don't). key msg: institutions *need* to empower faculty data literacies (esp now w/AI hype-palooza)

🚨Are you a Canadian graduate student that identifies as having a disability? Im interested in hearing about your experiences of being a grad student during the pandemic. bit.ly/impactofpandem… . .

4 talks down at #OTESSA23 & #CSSE2023. proud of my grad RA team. below, slides from Digital Ed in an Age of Data: What Do We Do NOW? built on my #OER23 talk in April but includes the hype cycle & gold rush AI has generated. spoiler: i got no answers :) docs.google.com/presentation/d…
