Although the fall semester begins sometime in August or early September, fall doesn’t really get here until Tuesday’s autumnal equinox. How did ProfHacker spend the last week of summer?
- On Monday, consecutive posts suggested, first, not to let productivity worries stress you out (Nels), and second, it would be clever to know more precisely where your time goes (Natalie). Hmm . . .
- George explained the thinking behind the ProfHacker 101 series
- Lots of choices this week: choose a web browser (Julie), or an approach to social media (George), or, probably most important, lunch (Billie)
- In the classroom, Amy answers the question, “Why do I have to learn these digital tools in this class?,” and Billie discusses the implications of thinking of a teaching practice as “teacher-centered” or “student-centered.”
- Tech support: Ethan explains what to do when Blackboard goes down, Amy describes her use of DevonThink and WordPress, and George announces a series on scheduling and surveying others–without e-mail
- To be healthy, Nels suggests not comparing yourself to others, while I managed to write an entire post about H1N1 without directly saying “wash your hands.”
Upcoming on ProfHacker this week: How to use a clicker to freeze time, a la mediocre Adam Sandler movies.
