Freebie Friday! - Free Sample of Avery Sticky Notes!

Readers,


Every morning and every evening, I follow three steps in my daily routine. Drinking six ounces of water from a BPA free container, checking personal and work e-mail on my iPad, and writing several "to do" items on a sticky note. Usually, I am very particular about the types of sticky notes that I choose to use, but lately I started to try something new, the Avery Sticky Note. I just requested a sample to add to my Avery Sticky Note pack. :)

Life After September 11, 2001 - A Millennial's Perspective...

Readers,


On September 11, 2001, I was a sophomore at Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas. This day really changed the way that I have chosen to live my daily life. I love traveling and as a student from a small town, I dreamed of studying and traveling aboard. As a result of terrorism concerns and the invention of airport security levels, I have been very apprehensive in traveling beyond the borders of the United States. In fact, a few days ago, I tried to remember how airport travel functioned before September 11, 2001. I could not remember life without baggage scans, actually seeing loved ones upon walking through the airline gates of my destination, and taking large bottles of bottled water (and shampoo, etc.) in my rolling luggage.


One website that was launched slightly before the announcement of the death of Osama bin Laden is "Growing Up in the Shadow of 9/11" through the American University School of Communication. Professor Amy Eisman's Writing for Convergent Media class partners with Gannett's Content one to examine the millennial generation's perceptions of life after 9/11/2001. This would be a great research study! :)

Wandering Wednesdays - Center for Teaching, Learning, and Academic Technology at Dillard University

Readers,


Last week, when I was searching for teaching and learning centers. I discovered a blog from the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Academic Technology at Dillard University (an HBCU in New Orleans). First of all, I am a fan of technology AND HBCUs and this blog combines both of my interests!


It seems that the DU CTLAT updates their blog on a daily basis. Their updates include: call for papers for journals and conferences, updates from the diverse issues in higher education, and teaching tips (and resources).


I visit this blog almost every day and it seems that the DU CTLAT updates their blog at least three times a day! :)


Sincerely,


Millennial Professor - Jennifer T. Edwards, Ed.D.
