Hi all - I abandoned the other place in November, but didn't post an #Introduction. Here it is.

#Boro supporting Northerner exiled on the South Coast of England.

Interested in the #FermiParadox, the cosmological #DistanceLadder, the relation between #Science and #ScienceFiction - and have written books on these and other subjects.

Fascinated to see if #EdTech can improve learning, particularly for #Physics and #Maths students.

What else? I have a BIG collection of #Asimov books!

A good read w/ sound analysis: I Speak Fluent ‘New Social Media CEO Who’s In Over Their Head’; Let Me Translate The Last Few Days Of Twitter Policy by Mike Masnick https://www.techdirt.com/2022/12/19/i-speak-fluent-new-social-media-ceo-whos-in-over-their-head-let-me-translate-the-last-few-days-of-twitter-policy/

Speaking of kids' $privacy, @tonyariley covers Internet Safety Labs' report that 96% of the apps used in U.S. K-12 schools share children’s personal information with third parties — including advertisers

Happy to share the first article building on our GEM-STEP project. This was a blast to write, and the whole special issue in the Journal of Applied Instructional Design (JAID) is quite interesting.

Hello Mastodon, I'm a journalist based in Reno. I write about water, public land, wildlife, energy and other environmental issues in Nevada and the West.💧 🏔️ 🏜️

I'm passionate about journalism, particularly on the local/statewide level, and I strongly believe in the need for an independent and open press.

I plan to use this account to share my reporting (articles, photos, documents, etc...), work I admire, and perspectives from across my beat.

We're giving you the chance to win a glorious new collection of Grimms' Fairy Tales!

With beautiful full-colour illustrations, fun rhyming text and even a textured foil cover, this really is a book to treasure: https://www.booktrust.org.uk/books-and-reading/have-some-fun/competitions/win-this-beautiful-collection-of-grimms-fairy-tales/

There were three men came out of the West
Three kings both great and high
And they have sworn a solemn oath
John Mastodon must die.

They took a tank and ran him down
With bullets in his head
And they have sworn a solemn oath
John Mastodon was dead

But when the Spring came kindly on
And showers began to fall
John Mastodon got up again
And did surprise them all...

School Library Journal's Best Graphic Novels of 2022 list is live!
https://www.slj.com/story/best-graphic-novels-2022-slj-best-books
These lists involve a *lot* of reading nominees, discussing what to keep and cut in writing and meetings, distilling books into annotations...
I'm proud of our group and the work we did, is what I'm saying.

Curious about moving from #Twitter to #Mastodon – a Twitter alternative? Read this article to learn how to join the Mastodon migration.

Please give it a #boost and click through to blog, maybe leave a comment about your experience making #TwitterMigration and responses to your #Introduction

Trying to raise awareness about the reach possible in this #federated space. 😉

The pace of changes at Twitter over the weekend was not only challenging to keep track of & process, it was also very surreal. Evidence we are better off with a federated, open source communication platform. But of course I can’t name or link it on Twitter, or I’d risk a ban?! Crazy.

🤯 I wrote about how I got students' heads spinning and thinking about vocabulary with spinners and a chatbot.
