Another Monday in a parallel universe. As HCWs, we spend our days dealing with patients who have #COVID19 (so many right now - of all ages), and helping patients with #LongCovid (of all ages), yet we have to explain to others why we won’t socialize or work indoors unmasked.

Common kingfisher.
Beautiful little blue-and-orange bird with a long, pointed bill.
Kingfishers fly low and straight like bullets, reaching up to 25 miles per hour.

I’ve recently begun a new role as an advisor to the City of Reykjavik, Iceland. Stay tuned for some really interesting and exciting announcements. One of the best parts about what I get to do is the amazing diversity of cities I get to work with. Very excited about upcoming trips to get to know the city better. #Reykjavik #Iceland

Blumenfield, Kempler, and Krajcik (2006) suggest engagement in grounded in four factors:

Value- Learners tend to be engaged with material and lessons they believe are important to them. Value is also closely related to motivation, interest, and goals, all of which are addressed in the next section.

Competence- Learners tend to engage in activities they believe are within their abilities. Competence is grounded in one’s knowledge, their metacognitive abilities and their self-efficacy.

Relatedness- Learners tend to be engaged when they feel positive social connection to their peers.

Autonomy- Learners tend to be engaged when they can exercise choice about what they will study and their plan of study.

Here’s a poem called ‘Refugees’. Please bear with it.

Time for a proper #commodon #introduction! I’m an Associate Prof. of #Communication Studies at Northeastern University. I study #disability and #criticaltech, kids/families’ #tech use, and disabled children’s #media use, primarily through #STS #sociology. My next book with MIT Press (Fall 2023) is “Kids Across the Spectrums: Growing Up Autistic in the Digital Age,” on what young people on the #autism spectrum are doing with media/tech, but also about what it means to “be social” with media.

New #Intro for coming back to this server

I'm going to be using this account to post about #Judaism & #HumanisticJudaism.

I'm a proud #Reform (member of Temple B'nai Israel in #OKC) and #Humanistic (@social.coop/@spinoza) Jew in #Oklahoma by way of #Conversion.

My views on #Israel and #Palestine do not fit well in Zionist or AntiZionist camps.

Nothing I post is legal advice.

Because it has to be repeated again and again: We need to drastically reduce the number of cars to solve our problems.

#Covid is officially back in its form. 😐

In 2022, Amazon’s revenues were higher than the GDP of 70 countries combined.
1 company’s revenues > GDP generated by 300 million people.

Jan 13: #WHO continues to recommend the use of masks by the public in specific situations, and this update recommends their use irrespective of the local epidemiological situation, given the current spread of the COVID-19 globally.
