We have a Boil Notice here in Houston. I hear that was announced on Mastodon.Weird

Can somene please tell me how to get notifications from that island?

Well, I made it through our two Thanksgiving with only one major argument, and that was with my 80 yr old mother over her eldest grandson's chances of getting into Harvard as a sophomore because he took one year of Dual Credit.

I tried to tell her how the system works and how universities feel about Dual Credit, but she would have nothing of it and so we went back and forth, increasing the volume and tone until my mom changed the subject with the line "So anyhow..."

For me, #ungrading is a holistic self-assessment: one way in which my students can identify what they learned and how they put that knowledg to use.

Here is my recent blog post on some of the questions I have students consider when thy draft their #ungrading essays.

There are so many #opened #oer repositories, especially helpful for #cc. I use Merlot https://merlot.org/merlot/.

I like OERCommons: https://www.oercommons.org/

And because I hail from Houston I am contractually obligated to mention OERTX.

https://oertx.highered.texas.gov/

Soon, my own cc will launch our own repository under the OERTX umbrella.
