🍅🍅 lost on no power but spent 🍅 outside in the rain with the dogs picking up sticks so I will count that as 🍅 gained. Then 🍅 redoing the grant edits I had already done before losing power: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vyd6a6A5CEkIb_Y9JBibKUA5UPTpCYqHUX00a3muMa4/edit?usp=sharing but the grant is ready to ship up the approval chain
#edu407 this says so much about horrendous inequity in our society, how we ignore school violence when it isn't a mass white shooter, but most importantly about the resilience of Young Americans who want to reflect and find answers.
Hey #edu407 back when I was doing my dissertation we were working on Internet Inquiry and teaching middle schoolers to blog in 2008 look at their interest driven inquiry topics: http://mrmcverry.edublogs.org/internet-inquiry/
@OpenScienceMOOC It's #openscience let's let it run then iterate. Enjoy stable release for a bit, but you know me want to t fork it for distributed model. Don't believe MOOCs with centralized nodes last, require soft funding or star power. Local nodes loosely connected
On a positive note didn't lose power or internet yet. Moving on to finalizing grant application for #webVR and @mozilla Responsible Computer Science Challenge
🍅🍅 spent on emails as I sent out launch video for #edu307. Opening inbox a productivity hole as crisis after crises arises. Need to get back to only advising/grad coordinatoir emails on set days, schedule 🍅 for email thsat is it. Push any other email to next day
Yes! This! This is what i envision when I think about turning our cities into our campuses.

Wow do you think @SecretaryRoss has a bunch of poor people travel with him so they can lay down in puddles and be the bridge that keeps his $500 shoes out of the muck. https://www.politico.com/story/2019/01/24/ross-government-shutdown-food-banks-1122842

🍅 spent on adding a chat room to #edu307 and redoing the side navigation. Time to record the launch video and get Children's Literature and Literacy Rockin' @scsu http://edu307class.networkedlearningcollaborative.com/chatroom.html
Found a last minute bug in the #edu307 syllabus https://edu307sp19.glitch.me/ do need to move it from skeleton to new microfromats course website. Ended up combining the syllabi and the course website in an effort to stay DRY in the tsunami of online teaching
I just added Game Dev Professor by Ken Thompson to the #edtech section of my following page at https://jgregorymcverry.com/following #BeYourOwnSocialNetwork

@steveslota @GlennMitoma @uconnNeag Ultimate goal to then apply for a scale up grant and work with our earth Science Department to put two 4k projectors and all all the recording gear for a full studio in a dual purpose planetarium
