It's Monday again.
Today I start with a high beginner with a speaking complex, followed by an absolute beginner who is struggling with the very basics.
Next I will have lunch and prep for the coming three days and then head home for my Dutch, and last, lesson at 4pm. #AmTeaching
Read how @adedijn.bsky.social warns about the bullshit "academia is too woke" arguments in #Nederland. We see, in the US, where that leads. #HigherEd #Academia #AmTeaching

DOOM welcomes newcomers to understanding this jape. #amteaching
Absolute privilege to take students to see the #architecture of #southwarkcathedral last week.
Passionate volunteers (thanks, Graham) and amazing history on display…no sighting of #hodge the cathedral cat, though

Looking for nice examples for Chi-squared tests, I am annoyed yet again that SO MANY are about testing whether this or that is independent of a random variable called "gender" which can only have two values.

It's Saturday. My colleague who has just finished an army intensive writes to me spontaneously to give me an ice breaker idea for my aquarium intensive. She knows I'm prepping over the weekend. #AmTeaching
My colleague from the intensive just sent me a video for my third day 🥲 youtu.be/a7MlH_oBUlY?... #AmTeaching #Aquarium
A computer screen with a PowerPoint presentation on New Year's resolutions in Dutch.
Goede voornemens... #AmTeaching #NT2
A foot path along a busy road (holiday shopping traffic) with a grassy bank to the left and a billboard w8th a Christmas advert in the background. The sky is cloudy with strips of light blue and a low sun breaking through
Four hours down, two-and-a-half to go. Got an hour to kill so going out for a walk. #AmTeaching
A box of chocolates with a nice Christmas card from students.
Sometimes work is emails, meetings and crap, but sometimes it's also delightful messages from students. I don't care if this is bragging, getting these chocolates was so touching today, made me tear up. This job can also be meaningful and full of joy <3 #AmTeaching #HigherEd #Academia
"How can we offer students a glimpse of what life was like for ancient peoples?... Teachers can expect to learn the ISAC approach to object-based learning, and how artifacts can connect our present to the past."
HECK YES

Crazy class dodging the crowds to learn about Greenwich Millenium Village, public art, and creating community and a destination.
Sometimes you just have to teach amongst a #five concert. #amteaching
In case you're wondering what I'll be up to in February (other than @superstarswriting.bsky.social, of course), it's this! ltue.net/jason-kristo... Thanks to @ltuesymposium.bsky.social for the invite and I can't wait to see you all there! #BookSky #AmTeaching #IndieAuthor #LTUE
A dialogue at the Opera box office, written by a student
My weakest student also did a great job. Did you know adults love getting a sticker for good work? 😋 #AmTeaching
Enjoyed my first patio writing and grading afternoon of the season, and it was delightful to have the hint of autumn finally in the air. 🍂

Since 2002 I've copyedited 282 scholarly books. Since 2018 I've taught history to many hundreds of college students. I'm proud of these contributions to society, and grateful to the public schools who taught me, and public colleges and unis who employ me.

My students will never think I'm cool but they WILL think about research while listening to Taylor Swift. And I think that's beautiful. #amteaching
Today I guest lectured in a college class about Alter Egos, discussing Carol Danvers, and Cora Vasco, the hero of my story "Standing Wave" which is out for preorder in WHERE LEGENDS WALK from @oddityprodigy.bsky.social www.oddityprodigy.com/where-legend...

It was all steel, plate glass, and railroads today with the #architecture students. Dodged rain and wind at St Pancras International, King’s Cross, and Coal Drops Yard. #amteaching
Had a lovely class on Gothic Revival #architecture and the rise of museums in the #c19 last week. It was made all the better by a #sumo sighting at the Albert Memorial. #amteaching #histarch
Part of a desk with a laptop, a phone, a cup, a book, a pack of coffee and an apple
An apple for the teacher #AmTeaching
Chatted about civic buildings, museums, and the architecture of empire Somerset House and Trafalgar Square. As always, students came up with great Fourth Plinth ideas and the sun shone (for this class only, others it only rains for) #amteaching #histarch #architecture 🗃️
Wanted to try something different after 20 years of school yearbook pics featuring my resting autistic face. Let me know how I did. #AmTeaching
Hard to be putting together lectures on the rise of military dictatorships in 20th century Latin America and not be checking boxes for what’s happening here in US 😭 #amteaching
Stunning autumn day teaching about Palladian and English Baroque #architecture at Queen’s House & Old Royal Naval College.

A small dog, a wiry dachshund, biting on a snack I am giving her. She's on a gray carpet in a classroom. She has brown eyes and a blondish beard and crazy eyebrows.
Remember how I said I had a service dog in class this year in my course Politics of Violence? HERE SHE IS!!!!!!! Keesje <3 I am buying her love with treats. It's working. #dog #AmTeaching
Good lesson with the Opera people. We talked about the 2025-2026 programme and what shows they're offering this season. #AmTeaching
There is a small assistance dog coming to my class tomorrow. I discussed this with the student, and apparently it's ok to acknowledge and interact with the dog (in this case). I am bringing some treats to class, just in case, if it's ok to give the dog a little something. #AmTeaching #HigherEd #Dog
First site visit covers 1600 years of London #architecture from the Roman Wall, the Tower of London, All Hallows Barking, London Bridge, Southwark Cathedral, the Golden Hinde, to the Globe Theatre (phew!).
There was ☀️ and 🌧️ and good discussion of fortification, religion, and replicas. #amteaching
