Luke Waltzer @lukewaltzer.bsky.social · 27/08/2026It’s great. But it also proposes a massive restructuring and coordination of academic labor that very few institutions have the resources, capacity, or will to pursue. 040

Luke Waltzer @lukewaltzer.bsky.social · 12/08/2026(Mental health is a good reason to move towards ungrading… but also, if done well, it facilitates learning and growth… I hope that’s the conversation that emerges, not this coddling/rigor silliness) 010
Luke Waltzer @lukewaltzer.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I appreciate and welcome this move (and am bummed my nephew who’s about to start at UM will miss it)— but I’m curious if there will be additional instructional resources provided to faculty to help facilitate feedback? The structure proposed sounds like hiding grades from students… 420
Luke Waltzer @lukewaltzer.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Unfortunately the realest answer is: it’s going to take some labor to figure it out. If you want to do it on your own timeline, I’d recommend the new Norton Guide to AI Aware Teaching from @derekbruff.bsky.social @marcwatkins.bsky.social and Annette Vee. 040
Luke Waltzer @lukewaltzer.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Yeah, it’s a pickle, especially in a dysfunctional department. I’m sensitive to not wanting to commit to a fac dev space where orientation of program isn’t clear, though Karen Stern Gabbay is great and worth talking to about the session. I’m sure there’ll be other folks who share your orientation. 100
