I'm preparing a lecture for our #DigitalScholarlyEdition Summer School next week using the 3x3 format (in its shortest version).
I'm feeling so overwhelmed and rusty doing this! I haven't given a proper lecture in years, especially not an interactive one.
Kudos to all of you who teach on a regular basis - this is HARD!

In response to the Trump administration's recent actions subjecting more than one thousand international students to visa revocations or other involuntary changes to their immigration status, the AAUP has written to college and university counsels to clarify that they are not legally bound to deny legal assistance or housing to students facing these threats.

The AAUP letter addresses concerns that colleges and universities may have about "harboring" individuals vulnerable to threats of detention or deportation by the Trump administration.

"But the past four weeks—we are just one month into this administration!—have seen a federal government agency illegally vaporized, a strike team responsible to a literal oligarch access our most closely guarded federal systems, and NATO rent limb from limb. What exactly could you think is the ground for optimism? ... At this point, taking a pessimistic view of probable outcomes as the baseline isn’t doomerism—it’s an informed updating of priors."

J.D. Vance, VP-wannabe, likes to say, “The professors are the enemy.” Christopher Rufo, a think-tank leech who fancies himself an education expert, also likes to say, “The professors are the enemy.” They’re both quoting Richard Nixon. The one-time holder of the “Most Criminal President” title (now, of course, second to Donald Trump) made the remark […]
Is there any Computer Science instructor or professor here who could help a fellow Computer Science instructor who could help me ways on how should I teach Discrete Structures 2 and Mathematical/Real Analysis 1? Hoping for a good direction and some materials to help me teach those courses is really appreciated.
