If you're in #academia & haven't watched #TheChair yet you're in for a treat. #SandraOh is fantastic.
I decided to leave academia for #altac this year & this is such closure.
Satire, laughter, sadness, all of these in each episode. Pulls all of my strings. Truly recommend.
In @netflix's "The Chair,” a woman ascending to a coveted leadership role as the chair of the English department, turns out to be a cunning form of discrimination.
Insider spoke with experts about how the show mirrors the challenges real women face. ⬇️

I'll never understand why some academic papers are written in such a complex manner
It's almost as if those researchers DON'T want their papers read and cited
Write simply, get cited

The US #ATF found that 70% of firearms recovered in Mexico (2014-2018) which were submitted for tracing had come from the US. In 2019 alone, more than 17,000 murders in #Mexico were linked to trafficked weapons.

It's really rewarding for you/students to see your work once you're done.
Plus they get the skills to continue making/editing #wikipedia pages.
AND you get a #WikiEducation liaison to help you with the course. A real person!
In my 8-student class we accomplished this:
Easy steps to submit your course for approval:
1) dashboard.wikiedu.org.
2) Complete Orientation for New Instructors. You'll be prompted.
3) Launch our Assignment Design Wizard. Go through the wizard to create your course page. Submit the course page & your application is done!

I really encourage you to use #Wikipedia in teaching if you can! I used it for the first time last quarter & my students really seemed to enjoy this activity as a part of #DH. & we get to #fillinthegaps in #LatinX info that exist in #wikipedia. Submit a course before June 20!
