This group of facilitators for the #POD25 "Getting Started: Workshop for New Educational Developers" pre-conference workshop--they are amazing! (Shown here in action figure poses).
6 educational developers with varying heights, skin tones, ages, genders, and clothing choices pose as action figures.

Well, that explains a lot. Except I’d delete “sometimes.”

Things are getting weirder.
And, sometimes, harder.

No auto preview - here's a quick view:
Library of examples, showing filter categories on the left (How is AI Used in the resource? What type of resource? What disciplinary area?) and examples in the main part of the page. 6 example thumbnails are shown, with graphics in red for AI-Prohibited, yellow for AI-Limited, and green for AI-Assigned, with additional icons for the type of resource (e.g., an iPad with a course policy document, a target with a dart for course learning goals, books with a pencil for assignments).

I'm catching up on the work of a truly gifted writer with whom I've lost touch in recent years. This essay is still deeply, sadly relevant now. "On Being a Parent Amid this Latest Anti-trans Violence" by Eric LeMay. ericlemay.org/On-Being-A-P...
Section from an essay by Eric LeMay, with illustrated gift and stars following the text: "Right now, our rights are being taken from us. Right now, our children are being taken from us. Right now, our lives are being taken from us. And so right now, in the midst of this violence and knowing the violence still to come, I want you to know what know in my soul: you are a gift."

After a wonderful intro to #linocut with @thewonderstruck.bsky.social earlier this year, I’ve been enjoying this form of making. Postcard press from openpressproject.com.

Finally watched #InsideOut2 on the plane to #POD24. Love! Pitch for Inside Out 3 — Menopause! New characters include Hot Flash, Brain Fog, Unapologetically Present, Zero F****, Self Care, and What Is My Body Doing Now. Who’s got a Pixar connection?

Yay & thanks @sarosecav.bsky.social for such a wonderful starter pack of amazing colleagues! I am out of practice yet hopeful re: meaningful online community.
So, what's up, friends in higher ed? This photo I took at SFMOMA a few weeks ago comes to mind re: fall 2024.
