I cannot help but feel out of my depth on multiple levels trying to construct a #CloseReading of a blogpost (or a segment thereof) that declares a way forward for #HPC development in the era of #AIhype (my phrasing, not theirs).

Reading isn’t just comprehension—it’s connection. 🍎📖
This “peel the fruit” organizer helps students move from surface observations to deeper meaning, perspective, and theme.
From what happened to why it matters.

Much thanks to everyone who replied to yesterday's question about

Anyone else?

Hello Bluesky folk.
There are lots of *wonderful* Historians in my feed.
Are there people who identify as predominantly Literary/ EngLit focussed readers here too?

We generate more text than ever, but we read less. Has the post-literacy age begun?

As a lit prof, I can't resist amplifying this one as a brilliant example of why close reading matters. As a an early modern *Spanish* prof, I present to you the frame for a new course on Maria de Zayas. #closereading #GoldenAge #mariadezayas

IOWA — Reading: Evidence First --> When a question asks “Which detail supports…”, make your child point to the line or sentence before picking an answer. No evidence = no pick. #IowaAssessments #CloseReading #LearningTips
Annnnddd that’s it for today! If you’re ever looking to dive deeper into a book, “Why did the author make this choice?” is a great question you can ask about literally everything in the book. And don't forget! There's a book on #CloseReading out soon! 8/8 portersquarebooks.com/book/9780691...
Hey #BookSky Here's another #CloseReading micro-course for you. This one is slightly different. You still need a book (duh) and I still highly, highly, highly recommend having a notebook & something to write with handy. Let’s go! (See post below for what sam hill is going on here) 1/8
Heyyyyyy #BookSky We're going to do our third micro-course in #CloseReading later this afternoon/evening because @dan-sinnamon.bsky.social's new book on Close Reading is almost out! Preorder 👇 We'll see you in a bit! portersquarebooks.com/book/9780691...
It occurs to me, like, two days later that it would have made since to, you know, actually include the #closereading promotion we do in here with the claim bsky.app/profile/port...
And if you'd like to order it from an indie bookstore that tries to promote #closereading here's the link: portersquarebooks.com/book/9780691...
Hey #BookSky Are you looking for a deeper, richer reading experience? Maybe something that is the intellectual opposite of doomscrolling & hot taking? Check our our #closereading micro-courses.
The research skill of skimming journal articles is essential for productive work. Yes, #CloseReading can be valuable, but it's not reasonable to do that for EVERY paper in you come across in your sub-discipline.
Annnd we’re back, with another micro-course on #CloseReading! If you’re like, "Josh what are you talking about?" click on ye olde quoted post for the background. The first step will look familiar to folks from last because, well, because it’s the same. 1/7
Heyyyyy #BookSky We'll be doing our second #closereading micro-course later this evening!
Today's assignment in my #closereading class was #edgarallanpoe's The Cask of Amontillado. I'm not big into #horror but it was pretty good. Talk about #revenge 😮 #shortstory #writingcommunity #fiction #literature #publishing
Finally, though it ain't Shonda Rhimes, I think it's really cool that at least a few folks are into our #CloseReading micro-courses. First one below. Might have another for your soon depending on work flow bsky.app/profile/port...
