It’s like teaching machines all over again. I don’t think centering our educational system around Duolingo and videos, and casting teachers/schools as necessary for childcare is a good way to think about educational technology. fortune.com/2025/05/20/duolingo-ai-…

In the midst of the rhetoric (and lies) about university finances really work, this is worth a read.

Enjoyed re-reading "The Victorian Internet" about the introduction of the telegraph, which enabled greater communication, shrunk the distances between us, and led to many experiences we see today online. Fairly quick and interesting read. #TechHistory #Internet #Technology

Worried about losing access to US federal data that may go off-line, or already is? You’re not alone—but duplication isn’t the answer. Many ongoing efforts have already archived key datasets and many more are ongoing. Check out these existing resources and, if you can, support their work. 🧵

Time for our annual meet-up with the gang from Jazz at Lincoln Center! A terrific show, as always, this past weekend.

Hockey night in Detroit…Red Wings took it on the chin, but the Zamboni gravy boats might be one of the greatest game giveaways ever.

Enjoyed re-reading The Victorian Internet. It looks at the telegraph, and how that launched a communications network with many of the promises & drawbacks we see with the Internet, plus parallels like instant news, spam, romance, encryption (sort of), & information overload.

Hello! I'm a faculty member at the University of Michigan. I mix human-computer interaction, learning sciences, computing, & design to explore new learning experiences. I love games (yes...I teach a course on gaming and learning), & how we can use tech and media to make positive change in the world.
