094 | How Do You Assess Ungrading? with Dr. Timothy Shea & Twitter for Education

Dr. Timothy Shea joins us for episode 4 in the ungrading series to discuss HOW we even assess ungrading. Isn't the point not to assess? Wrong. Assessment and feedback are key to learning, but numerical/alphabetical grades are not. Listen in for how Dr. Shea has been doing this for decades! He also leaves us with an oldie but a goodie: Twitter for Education. He still uses Twitter for his professional purposes and trains students how to effectively engage in social media tools.

096 | Interpersonal Communication Skills & Slack

Josh and Will played a game called Hot Takes, and it spawned a podcast episode. The question came up about social media and its impact on interpersonal communication skills. We take this entire episode to play the idea out and see just what we think. After a bit of waxing poetic, we chat about Slack and how it can serve the purpose of teaching with social media without it being so social.
