the roamerLetting the student learn. You can't force it. No chance to be complete. But every chance to make use of the light that gets in through tge cracks.A single brush stroke, not a treatise.

So, this might be appealing for some folk here. 😉<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Teaching</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/AcademicCareer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicCareer</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/AcademiCChatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademiCChatter</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/OpenScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenScience</a>

Brian :python: :flask: :html5:I spent a while last night writing up a new lab procedure for my advanced chem class before going to bed. After sleeping on it, I don't think I took the right approach with the procedure. I need to go back and rethink how to have them do some chemistry to reinforce existing skills within the new context. I think last night's approach was too new and didn't have them put current knowledge into practice enough. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/chemistry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chemistry</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#teaching</a>

Charlotte AtenWhy don't we write the logarithm like this?

Trevor BurrowsWhat I'm doing in classes today:In Historical Research and Writing, we're continuing our close reading of Tisa Wenger's *We Have a Religion* on Indian dance controversies of the 1920s esp re: the Pueblo.We will use Ch 4 to frame a primary source exercise: we'll read two sources mentioned, but then will hunt for more on NYT and Chronicling America and try to put the sources together live. This is usually pretty successful, but I've expanded the exercise to have them do more of the searching, with guidance.<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Teaching</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Histodons</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HigherEd</a>

Trevor BurrowsAm thinking about putting together a series of (videos? essays?) for undergrads with the working title: 'Be a human: How to differentiate yourself in an 'AI' world'Section headings and pertinent lessons include:"Let Your Nerd Flag Fly": LLMs tend toward generalities or well-known details, so be nerdy to distinguish yourself in your writing."Tell Me Something a Computer Doesn't Know" or 'Your Body, Your Self": you are a human in space and time, draw on your experience and background, including *other* classes you've taken, to make something unique to you."Be Bad at Poetry, but in a Human Way": writing poorly as a human will probably still be more interesting than writing "well" via an LLM.[I am really thinking about this, nobody steal it][jk, you can steal it]<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HigherEd</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Teaching</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/HaveBeenGradingPapers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HaveBeenGradingPapers</a>

Brian :python: :flask: :html5:Another week in the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/chemistry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chemistry</a> classroom.In my infinite wisdom, I decided to run two labs today across four different periods.First year chem is doing a gas collection reaction in which they had to figure out the amount of reactant to generate a specific amount of gas. It's a combination of the ideal gas equation as well as some stoichiometry.Second year chem is exploring equilibrium, pushing toward reactant and product using concentration changes of reagent.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#teaching</a> :cupofcoffee:
