Hey #unboundeq check out this quote about #literacies and now think about asking teacher candidates to speak with proper grammar. Have no problem encouraging academic discourse but don’t dismiss a dialect as bad dispositions (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7289-2/) https://x.com/davidbraze/status/1043530106097086464
@glitch @xoxo @ProductHunt @jilliangmeehan @notjoshblaney @nicksahler @cdparx @ailsarr @christianp thx for showing me I need to go fix my CSS on that for mobile views. I forgot I didn't fix template.
@NintendoAmerica Every time I try to purchase the family plan @nintendoamerica tells me I have an invalid credit card. Not true. I have tried five working credit cards (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7286-2/) https://t.co/PVN87VRK47
@NintendoAmerica Now son, who worked hard to have his Splatfest shirt ready, stuck, no play, practically in tears while I wait in cue. Close to twenty minutes in. Why wasn’t I given option of family plan if they knew I was purchasing on linked child account? (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7281-2/)
@NintendoAmerica So I go online to @nintendoamerica online chat, they say, “sure we can resolve your issue but you need to call.” You call the number and they are so busy they tell you to use online chat. WTF, getting walked in circles trying to give them $$ (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7279-2/)
So far not happy with @nintendoAmerica onboarding to online. All I heard it was 19.99. Bough account .Doesn’t work for every kid. Now when I try to purchase the family plan I get an error my card is invalid, I have tried three working cards. (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7277-2/)
@algot@mastodon.art Meaning brushed aside deciduous eraser dust Words lost and poems forgotten As stanzas fall To the floor #smallpoems (https://jgregorymcverry.com/7276-2/)
I must add the vendor was quite respectful of both points faculty brought up. They said they were unaware plural pronouns were now acceptable as gender neutral single pronouns and would change their manual. (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7272-2/)
@johnjohnston and you know we need to take a try at adding the correct microformats to @cogdog’s new portfolio themes. I haven’t even begun to play with those I turned his new business card into an h-card. That was fun. (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7268-2/)
@johnjohnston @WordPress Threw you an @ mention in #IndieWeb chat to ping @pfefferle he would welcome a second eye and hands on SemPress, especially someone with your skill and disposition (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7266-2/)
So now students may or may not get into #teacheredchat programs or may not get a license because of their scores on assessments built on #BadScience. What happened to respecting and trusting #highered faculty? The assessments are just as bad (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7264-2/)
@caepupdates what they want to measure, “Does this person have what it takes to teach?” We just don’t know how to measure it. Instead of empowering faculty we developed a data fetish to appease @CAEPupdates They want pretty charts, good data be damned (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7262-2/)
@caepupdates Just because we SHOULD do something doesn’t mean we CAN do something. Read the literature. NO ONE HAS ANY IDEA HOW TO MEASURE DISPOSITIONS OF TEACHING AT SCALE. Saying anything else is a lie. Possibly worse than #BadScience #HigherEd (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7260-2/)
@johnjohnston How tweets look using Bridgy is very dependent on which of the three IndieWeb @WordPress themes you choose. Picked 2016-IndieWeb because it seemed to syndicate to Twitter the cleanest. They each have pluses and minuses. Have to weigh options (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7258-2/)
@caepupdates told by powers to be at university of assessment, ” @CaepUpdates says the assessment is reliable and valid and they like it, so it is reliable” That is not how science works. That is how #BadScience works #HigherEd (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7256-2/)
@caepupdates Methods section of the “testing manual” was so light on detail you wouldn’t be able to reproduce the study…and I still don’t know what a Pearson Correlation of .26 is “considered high” because they were measuring “content validity” means (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7254-2/)
@caepupdates Yesterday when I asked to see testing manual. Something you should ask of every test vendor I found this chart. We were told don’t worry about low coefficients this is content validity so those are high. What does that even mean? (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7251-2/) https://t.co/FvahCKyYHk
@caepupdates Do not let @caepupdates or any test vendor tell you a rubric is reliable. Definition of #BadScience. Rubrics aren’t reliable. Reliability needs to be established at each administration, with each group of raters, with each batch. (http://jgregorymcverry.com/7249-2/)
