We’re back this week to something like our usual publishing schedule–three posts daily. In case you missed anything:
- Textbooks: I ask how to get rid of ‘em ethically, and George asks what would make a good electronic one.
- Your digital life: Amy explains password managers; Brian takes on Digital Office Hours, and I schedule wiki gardening sessions.
- Nels gets a lift from “The Soundtrack of the Semester” and pointed to the “Google Faculty Research Awards Program.”
- I explain “How Not to Talk about Undergrads” and “The Difference between Workload and Expectations Management“
- Meta: Everything we posted over winter break, plus a reader-submitted ProfHacker mixtape. Also, we’re crowdsourcing our comments policy–won’t you help?
- Standing posts: Billie offered “Salmon and Sweet Potato Chowder” for lunch. In “Open Thread Wednesday,” readers asked about Wikipedia, transferring to a four-year college, annual review, and more. Posts on these to follow shortly! Finally, in weekend reading I offer some further links on digital organization, these kids today, whether information wants to be free, and more.
Have a good week–let’s be safe out there!
