On a recent academic trip to the University of Colorado, I learned of their programme to offer local retired people un-filled slots on university modules for a nominal fee. The retirees did everything except the assessments. What a great idea.

I’ve read this book and it’s incredible. So much so that it stands to be the go-to guide for health and longevity. (Note: I am not a paid endorser; it’s simply terrific).
I'm excited to announce that after more than 6 yrs of planning, research, writing, rewriting, editing, & rewriting, my book, Outlive: The Science & Art of Longevity, has a release date of March 28th, 2023. You can pre-order now wherever books are sold:

Wonderful to run a "Hacking Hackathons" seminar & workshop for the @EUErasmusPlus #Eduhack initiative in All Hallows @DCU. So much interest in effective & experiential teaching moments to develop innovation in students/employees. Thanks @yvonnecrotty @DCU_ICIWL and attendees!
At @DCU_IoE #hackday @DCU_ICIWL . A balanced introduction to the Hackathon methodology with ideas about its misconceptions, drawbacks, varieties and opportunity to create experiential IMMERSIVE SPACES for students of today's world. @RoLyonz #hackathon

I heard @hubermanlab say on a podcast how he regularly stops himself from doing trivial things - like picking up a paper clip or fidgeting with a pen in a meeting.
Why does he do that? Why does it matter?
(Surprise, surprise: it has something to do with our brains 🧠)

This is your regular reminder that the study of higher education is an academic discipline. I'm looking forward to the day when we stop wondering why academia devalues the study of itself.

“Focus” is complex but from a neurochemistry perspective it’s like an arrow where acetylcholine is the arrowhead, epinephrine is the arrow shaft & dopamine is a propeller that drives the arrow forward.
P.S. Nicotine increases all 3.
P.P.S. Don’t smoke or vape.

I gave up asking students to respond to each other's discussion posts. Now I ask them to quote & reference each other's responses in their projects/papers or summarize 4-5 student responses for the annotated bib. Students use each other's writing as a resource for the course.

On overcast days you’ll want to get 20-30min of morning sunlight exposure to your eyes, not with sunglasses or through a window or windshield. The positive benefits for focus, mood, sleep and metabolism are far reaching. On clear mornings 10min should suffice. #science

You can tell who gets consistent time morning sunlight viewing & who doesn’t by simply asking them if they sleep well 80%+ of nights. Setting your circadian rhythm this way is zero cost, grounded in countless studies & while not the only variable for sleep, it is the top one.

Have you ever thought about inviting a student to work on writing a case with you? You are actually on to a great idea.

Dopamine:
1) is not about pleasure.
2) drives motivation.
3) mediates reward driven learning.
4) is non-infinite but renewable.
5) is also involved in movement.
6) plays a role in vision.
7) can be controlled.
