#aera23 I'll be presenting on concepts from my forthcoming book, Critical Network Literacies on Sunday at 9:50am - come on by if you are at the conference!

Seeing #aera2023 #aera23 conversations heat up on the bird site but not here yet.

Looking forward to going and presenting some ongoing work re: how STEM and CTE are being integrated and how that affects students differently based on sociocultural contexts.

2:50 pm 4/15 in the Radisson Blu Aqua, 2nd Floor, Caribbean

#aera2023 conference self-care

"Everyone rushed to blame the homeless, but the real perpetrator turned out to be a tech executive" really is the story of 21st century San Francisco in a nutshell.

@gravesle @ZingerLearns @edutooter If you can find the steam of Cornell West’s talk this evening, absolutely definitely watch it!! Amazing speaker. So much inspiration. Just one: If you are seduced by “profession”, you have forgotten *vocation*. #AERA2023

Heading out to #AERA23 tomorrow! Looking forward to connecting and reconnecting with folks interested in student engagement in #STEMeducation and #CTE. (1/2)

2/2 I'll present on Saturday: What counts as STEM (and for whom)? The case of secondary Engineering, Design, and Production concentrators. As "STEM-CTE" concentrators and offerings rise, it is worth considering why students select or avoid this pathway.

Spoiler slide: here is how I am thinking about these pathways are showing up in practice that I think warrants a lot more conceptualizing than "just another STEM pathway"

Here is a must-read post from children's author Maggie Tokuda-Hall on how Scholastic offered to publish her book — all she had to do was remove all mention of racism.

Sure, they're banning books in Tennessee and Texas. But it's not just the books that get published and then banned from the library. It's all the books that don't get published in the first place.

Those banning books know publishers like Scholastic pull this cowardly bullshit. It's their game plan.

1. Across the country, right-wing activists and politicians are pushing to ban hundreds of books from libraries.

It started off with school libraries, but now there are efforts to remove books from public libraries as well

Then they ran into a problem: The First Amendment

@discoursology @ZingerLearns @edutooter - was just coming here to check! I'm not going but wanted to (hopefully) follow along virtually.

@ZingerLearns @edutooter Me, I’m on my way to the airport! Not seeing a lot of #AERA23 posts (yet?) tho…

Here are the results of testing a Ukraine thread on Mastodon.

I only have 1/20th the following here as I do on Twitter.

Yet you folks provided 1/4 the boosts/likes/comments that Twitter did on similar news reporting.

I’m staying.

And maybe I’ll even post to Mastodon first for my next big announcement!

The Prejudicial Logic of Productivity: Discrimination against disabled faculty members is often dismissed because it’s linked to the academy’s deeply entrenched values around productivity.

(Great piece! Also, I hate the opening line.)

Study of faculty searches at R1 university finds committees consider women's—but not men's—relationship status in hiring. Women w/ high-status partners were considered not 'movable' & excluded from offers when there were male or single female alternatives. ""Conversely, committees infrequently discussed male applicants’ relationship status and saw all female partners as movable."
