Hey all! I'm looking for great examples of university syllabi or templates. This could include examples of well-designed, visually appealing syllabi, or examples that demonstrate well-organized, accessible content, or examples that include well-crafted content, assignments, etc. Anyone? #edusky
An interesting bug that people are scratching their heads over.

One of my fav vids from the early web is Amateur by Lasse Gjertsen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jzqu... It's a great demonstration of how tech (video editing in this case) can extend one's skills into another discipline. Here, someone who cannot "play" piano or drums is clearly still a musician. #edusky

As #edusky & other BlueSky teacher communities emerge, it's worth remembering that many educators left Twitter well before the Elon et. al toxicity period. Excessive self-promotion, lack of professional benefit, stress/burnout, noise, erosion of dialogue, etc. were all factors. Let's learn and grow.

At Google HQ for an AI learning thingy. Brought Bea because everything is better with my kids.
For many of us #edusky is an attempt to revert to old-school Twitter. Maybe those who never experienced #oldschoolTwitter can share what it was like. I'll start: One time, I posted that I boiled ribs. Folks from TX lost their minds and ended up hosting an event at ISTE which was amazing. What else?
Time for the linguist game, question #10. A protruding, often cartilaginous appendage located in the cranial region, primarily functioning in the capture and identification of volatile organic compounds. Your move! What word am I describing? #EduSky
