'What Do You Need Wednesday?'—The ArtsFest Edition (Still) "...every tiny thing by one percent..."

A celebration is also an argument. This week's WDYN makes the case for the arts: with research, a field guide, and a clock made of people.

The book cover for Teaching Meaning: What Works When Telling Isn't Enough.

Release day! The ebook & hardback are live.

The first book for teachers based on *enactive* cognitive science, please consider leaving a review when you're done (it really helps).

(Paperback readers: Amazon is having a glitch, so it's slightly delayed.)

Reporter: I’m sorry Joe, what?

MAZZULLA:

We all we got, we all we need.

A lot about the world is very heavy right now but if a college football podcast that got jettisoned by Vox during the pandemic for not having a marketable audience can raise this much money for refugees in Atlanta in two days then just think of all the stuff we can all do together

If, as a parent, you are causing a scene on the sidelines of a U6 soccer game because of what the kids are doing on the field, I can assure you there is precisely one villain in the scenario and that villain is you. Top shelf parenting too.

And to think I “missed” coaching after 3 years off.

'What Do You Need Wednesday?'—The STEMposium Edition (Still) "...every tiny thing by one percent..."

STEM is having a moment: in theaters, in orbit, and this week in the hallways of The Episcopal Academy. This week's WDYN rides that energy: what does it look like to teach the way the best researchers think?

'What Do You Need Wednesday?'—A Motivation Edition (Still) "...every tiny thing by one percent..."

What if student motivation isn't a personality trait, but instead a design problem?

New WDYN has three resources worth your time this week—especially in April.

Where is My Mind? On questions that move through time

New 'Academic DJ' piece on questions—what they unlock, what they reveal, and why the most important variable in asking a great one has nothing to do with intelligence or technique.

I am replacing my garage fridge with a data center, b/c these Dale’s Pale Ales aren’t gonna heat themselves.

WNBA Players Had an Ace Up Their Sleeve in Pay Negotiations: A Nobel Laureate Harvard economist Claudia Goldin helped WNBA players win a nearly 400% raise. Starting this season, players’ average salary will top $580,000.

After Claudia Goldin became the first woman to win a solo Nobel in economics, she got hundreds of invitations.

She accepted three.

One was advising WNBA players on a labor deal. She helped players land the biggest % raise in US sports history.

I’m like a suburban Rick Ross, “Rich forever.”

Slowly becoming more and more unhinged in the Kindergarten soccer chat. I like to keep the parents on their toes.

Project Hail Mary with my number one from day one. The book was better, but still a great watch.

Pro education (really nice here. Especially for primary). Pro us being able to solve hard problems.

'What Do You Need Wednesday?'—The Minds on Task Edition (Still) "...every tiny thing by one percent..."

With spring break at EA just around the corner, this week's WDYN is built around one idea: the conditions that make learning stick are often the same ones that make rest restorative.

New research, a good book rec, and a case for doing nothing.

Same. I wonder about discipline specifics. Bio vs. History for example. Something just feels off of late for me.

Curious to investigate it intentionally.

I LOVE my slides. I make good slides. But recently I’m of the mindset that they’re not doing what I want them to do. This piece might’ve pushed me over the fence.

I’m going to investigate this in the spring with a SoTL study and write it up.

I have never known a world outside of Bounce U. My children have birthdays. Their friends have birthdays. Their friends’ friends have birthdays.

We are not seeing mass protests because universities and colleges criminalized dissent — not just disciplining students on specious grounds but sending police (sometimes more in # than protestors) and supporting prosecutions. Ppl are terrified.
