What has Nicky been up to lately?
After my final study leave before retirement (planned for August 2025), I'm back in classrooms and innovating like crazy...I feel like I need to cram all the ways I want to teach into too short a time.
I'm ungrading one or more courses each term. I'm using extremely diverse reading lists when it comes to gender and race. I've brought my lap loom to class and had students make a textile that represents them as a group (I took two weaving classes while on study leave). I accidentally became familiar with Gen-AI (e.g. ChatGPT) and have thought about its use in English lit courses. Tired, but happy.
