I received.a message from senior leaders that came from the legal folks regarding accessibility.

It was not accessible.

What if you are an educator, who did your job and taught an incomplete, inaccurate, inappropriate curriculum? I used to think that could be excused... now... not so much.

Avoid single reasons and single villains.

I’m trying new strategy for expanding my professional library... if the table of contents resembles something I would write, I skip it. Self-reinforcing libraries are echo chambers too.

“I now hold entirely different views,” are not words often heard today.

What if (contrary to what were were told 15 or 20 years ago) Wikipedia really is full of credible information?

So much that is “data driven” turns out to be “myth driven.”

If your efforts to “innovate” seek to return to the “glory” of the past... just stop... you misremember the past, and we were probably jerks back then.

Wondering why we need to keep putting volume, issue, page numbers in citations when we have a doi.

It is always strange when deceased colleague’s work anniversaries, birthdays, and other dates arrive in social media notifications.

Avoid “leading by buzzword.” Some of us can recognize it and we know what it means.

The older I get, the less tolerance I have for hypocrisy.

believe diagramming sentences helped me understand how to construct good sentences.

I really think essays are an under-appreciated genre.

What if we replaced "delivering the curriculum" with "teaching?" #education

Your “steam of consciousness” presentation is likely worse than your prepared talk.

“Lecturing is really just making noise.” Interesting, and maybe not inaccurate, interpretation.

Someone somewhere needs to read this right now: Your rambling reflection in the keynote is not a question... we know it got you thinking.. and your mind is swimming... please avoid grabbing the microphone (real or virtual) to prove you have incomplete (but energizing) thoughts.
