Hey #Professors, how were you told (in grad school or as a new prof) not to work on your teaching or #Pedagogy? Do you remember specific phrases or language used to discourage you from developing your teaching skills? #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #HigherEd #Teaching
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this thread today! I’m glad to be in community w you. I’m writing abt the discourse around pedagogy & I may quote some of you (w full attribution of course). Soon I’ll do a roundup of this thread in a new thread and will probably unspool it.
I’m logging off for the evening but feel free to share examples. Be nice to each other. And get some sleep. ❤️

I’m still in shock, and intermittently weepy as I process (mute thread if you need). Starting w the numbers, which are, simply, mind blowing:

Total debt forgiven: in the low 6 digits, abt half a house
Total retirement fund, std same year as #PSLF: about 3k *less* than loans 1/
I realized I’ve been low-key thinking about my retirement fund as “almost enough to pay off student loans if shit hits fan” fund. Now it’s . . . an actual retirement fund. 2/
Speaking of retirement, spouse and I have filed tax separately bc filing jointly would’ve raised “my” income, disqualifying me for the IBR, ICR, and poss the PSLF itself. The guv penalizes married ppl filing separately, inc. barring us from having Roth IRAs (w tax advantages) 3/

Remember when I asked you about the messages you got about teaching? Here is what we learned! BUCKLE UP. (Thread) #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter #digped 1/
First, thanks to all of you (such a huge response!) who responded and began to create community around this painful experience so many of us endured. I appreciate you. We learned A LOT about the discourses of #Teaching and #Pedagogy in #Highered last week. 2/
Here are some common words/phrases y'all used last week: focus, distraction, job, too much time on teaching, too good, evals, tenure, teaching awards, unspoken, career suicide, grad school, kiss of death 3/

Hey all, here is my report (THREAD) about my first #Ungrading semester, part 2 (pt. 1 can be found here: threadreaderapp.com/thread/1449462…) #ContractGrading #Pedagogy #DigPed #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter 1/
The biggest takeaway from this semester how easy it felt. Not ease of work--there was work, but how it helped conversations about student writing, which is literally my job, easier. #Ungrading #AcademicTwitter 2/
Here’s how it worked! Materials: my 1101 syllabus, project rubric, semester “snapshot” template, portfolio assign. sheet, class grade agreement, & list of grade items is here: tinyurl.com/weaverungrade . #Ungrading #AcademicChatter #WritingTeaching 3/

UNGRADING report! Halfway through my first ungraded semester (comp 1) and I find I’m saying the same things when people ask how it’s going: 1/18 #Ungrading #ContractGrading #Pedagogy #DigPed #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter
My students report feeling “relieved” they don’t have to worry about grades, and I feel relieved, too: as I mentioned to a colleague, I feel more “settled in my soul” about how much freer I am to focus on giving constructive feedback. 2/18
Responding to work has been easier and quicker-- in the past, a not insignificant amount of time was given over to dithering abt letters and numbers (is this an A? Is this a B?--Thank god we don’t have pluses and minuses). 3/18
