In a new paper emphasizing the importance of safe school staff, we find that relative to cis students, trans students seek help more from school staff than their parents.

Many popular resources for digital-citizenship education only focus on good online behavior. That’s a problem. #EWOpinion #K12 #OnlineSafety edweek.org/teaching-learn…

A huge honor to receive this recognition, especially from an organization that has been so important to me throughout my career. Grateful to the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) community, and to the mentors, colleagues, teachers, students, friends, and family without whom my work wouldn't be possible.

What a strange coincidence. Our two papers were published more or less at the same time. Great to work with Kean Birch and Sam Sellar on this. Both articles are open-access and free. They analyse making digital data valuable and the EdTech start-up dynamic. /1

Sharing a new preprint about generative AI and survey research! Studies have shown LLMs can simulate human responses to survey questions. Here, we focus on open text responses and find the opposite: they do a poor job at capturing variation and present new problems🧵

Sharing a paper just published in the Journal of Big Data! Studies have shown strong associations with writing and demography, so here we ask "who do LLMs write like?" Answer: higher social status people (with some caveats) BUT with very little variance link.springer.com/article/10.118…

Working with @aaminahm the last couple of years has been no less than magical. The work has taken us to Italy and Cyprus. But we stay reaching new heights, because we just signed a contract with TCP! This book is a labor of love.

Just learned of this great article by Pleasants, Krutka, & Nichols via Neil Selwyn's podcast (h/t @charleswlogan and Civics of Technology) "What kind of relationship do we want to have with this technology, both as individuals and as a society?" static1.squarespace.com/static/60cf735…

Excited to share our new article on how playful activities - such as cosplay, role-play, and improv theater - expand how we think about reader-response theory and methods of interpreting action texts. #literacies Free download here: tandfonline.com/eprint/VEN7STK…
