Apropos Garth's reminder below, here's a new video from the the guys at New Ed Tech Classroom with information on five highly useful apps, one of which is ChatGPT, and [possible ways to use them in our teaching. Granted, they are thinking along K-12 lines, but there is much that is applicable to working with our college students in various modalities. Here's the link:

As we approach February 13th, advising leadership has shared that students have the option to request a grief absence, allowing them to take necessary time away during the week of February 13th. Please guide students to reach out to their academic advisors for further details. The advising unit leads will then coordinate with the student and their instructors, providing further information regarding the approved grief absence request. Additional details regarding MSU's grief absence policy can be found here: https://reg.msu.edu/roinfo/notices/griefabsence.aspx

Hello! My name is Sarah Schultz and I serve as the Director of My Spartan Story, MSU’s new co-curricular record. I am elated to be your #ama host for September 30! At MSU, we know students are participating in beyond-the-classroom experiences where learning is occurring such as jobs, leadership positions, student organizations, and more. Beginning this fall, students will be formally recognized for their engagement and learning through My Spartan Story and the Spartan Experience Record, an official MSU document which students can request through the Registrar’s Office alongside their transcript. As a new initiative at MSU, I am happy to answer questions on co-curricular experiences, how you can get involved with My Spartan Story, and all things beyond-the-classroom learning.

ASK ME ANYTHING with Justin Wigard -- Zines and Zine-Making as Critical Pedagogy.

Earlier this year, I taught ENG 342: "Playful Literature and Literary Games," a special topics literature seminar geared around the intersections between play and literature. As a result, this course centered zines, smallscale and handmade publications that offer opportunities for marginalized voices to make themselves heard. This culminated in a project where students forged their own entry point into these popular genres by creating a zine related to play, games, or taking the form of a game-zine. Because zines are an intimate literary form designed for smallscale distribution and are handcrafted, the zine stands as a perfect entry point to blending scholarship with creation, design with theory. Throughout the day, I will be online talking through approaches to teaching zines in the online classroom, particularly approaches to incorporating, analyzing, and making zines. Come ask me anything!
