@maryErudis I'm switching from #R #bookdown to #Quatro. Overall a smooth transition, not in the least thanks to the good documentation. Differences with RMarkdown are small, but includes some clear improvements. Overall, I'm a happy user 😊

CW: U.S. politics, death
I feel like I need to apologize because yet *again* there are families who will go to bed tonight with an empty bed where a child should be; this time a religious school in Nashville, TN. Can we please, please, have a rational and HONEST conversation about assault weapons in the United States? Please?
Two facts:
1) the shooting occurred even after the school implemented an active shooter program in 2022; it failed to protect 7 people
2) the attack lasted 14 minutes -
In case you missed it…. THE GOAT… “JT” (James Taylor for young ‘uns who failed to grasp their parents’ music choices)… sang the National Anthem at the Lewiston High School football game against their arch rival (across the river from them) Auburn. That’s Lewiston, Maine… population less than your mom Lewiston, Maine. I got all choked up when I listened to his rendition. So much unspoken/unsung in those two minutes #JamesTaylor #Lewiston

I'm now in #Day6 of #COVID (living in a county of science-deniers has its challenges) and I've been getting caught up on #crochet projects - @hrbrmstr thought I was "quilting"
Project #1: for kid #4 is hexagonal patchwork afghan inspired by #Minecraft and I call it "Creeper in a Coal Mine" (Creeper separate)
Project #2: for kid #2 is a huge bedspread for King size bed using thick blanket yarn #Bernat blanket yarn in "Countryside"
If I manage to complete them, I'll post pics

It's #ComputerScience #Education week and #HourofCode 2022 has begun! I was looking over all of the fun activities and each day will post here one that appeals to me as an educator. Today's activity is geared for 6th-8th grade students (I would include 9th graders) and it's this #BinaryCode activity: https://chandra.si.edu/binary/ Enjoy!

On behalf of women everywhere, especially at a time when justice for people with a uterus is under attack, I wish to pass this on: Not by shouting or raising of fists in anger, but by the collective whisper of our millions of voices in unison, saying ‘no more’ to injustice (refusing to take part where it is present) will we attain a lasting end to patriarchy as a legitimate social construct. #Internationalwomensday #WeAretheFuture

This is an encouragement post for all students and learners, especially if you get lots of groans and eyerolls because of how often you #askwhy . All work needs to be purposeful and needs to have a "why". We aren't sponges, absorbing knowledge as if plugged into the #Matrix -- we need to know "why" we're doing what we're doing; if not then true #learning doesn't happen. #purposefulwork

For those of us who remember desktop computing without a #GUI I recall getting my first #Macintosh with a whopping 1MB RAM; my reason for bringing this up: #MYST on a 5-inch B/W screen captured the imagination in a powerful way that just doesn't happen anymore. I miss being #mesmerized by something completely new and breathtaking

Each state in the USA has been granted the authority to govern its own elections, including primary elections. #Maine constitution requires any/all candidates to provide a statement with evidence certifying that they are eligible to hold office. Secy #Bellows was granted the authority by the state legislature to resolve any dispute of that claim by a candidate. Am I happy? No. Do I recognize the tension this causes? Absolutely. But I’ve never been more proud to be a #Mainer

@PattMeeples Welcome! I’m new to the #Fediverse too; what I’ve learned so far… make sure to have 2FA on your account and make use of hashtags a lot because folks who share your interests might be on different servers; search by hashtag to find other likeminded individuals; #Mainer #Math #HigherEd <— like that, for example

CW: use of demeaning words
Recently I’ve been seeing more posts with descriptions of people as “moron” or #imbecile”, other words to that effect. This is not a criticism, it’s basically letting y’all know of a feature on Mastodon; you can block all posts that contain a specific word or phrase from your timeline. It’s much better than calling people out, or attempting to *educate* someone about etiquette, in my view. Hope everyone’s week is going well.

#rstats #dataviz just gonna drop this here: I need to update this to the most recent data. Source was #MotherJones and is legitimate data. Not sure if this needs a content warning, but I'm not advocating for anything in particular. Just let the data speak for itself. If anyone wants the #Rcode I used, it uses #BaseR and I can put all of it into Github

CW: calculus
#highered #math #calculus for business students: no "rules for computing derivatives"... none... no rote memorization... so students are allowed to refer to this sheet when solving *any* problem in my class... quiz/exam questions are about interpretation and making decisions around the results they see and what is needed to make those decisions #thinkingclassroom
