hi 209! a little end-of-term challenge 👉 if we hit 80% on course evals by the end of today (rutgers' deadline), i’ll add extra credit to EVERYONE’S bluesky journal assessment 🎉 asynch evals are notoriously hard to get students to complete, so every single one helps. 🫡, ashley (link in module 11)

Loving these #painteddreams posts and these z🌕🌕m meetings, y’all. I can 〰️ feel 〰️ your third voices beginning to emerge. 🐣🐥, a

hi friends ☀️ if your final project would benefit from a last-minute one-on-one z👀m with me, email me today so I can get you on my schedule! I’ll be floating around off/on all weekend/monday, ready to look, listen, troubleshoot, and/or speculate wildly with you. 💌, ashley

2️⃣0️⃣9️⃣: you've arrived at the penultimate module of the term. patty and i are eager to help you with your final projects in #hwa7. also, i have just now finished responding to each #sme4! if anyone would like to meet with me over the weekend for extra help, pls shoot me an email asap! more s👀n, ashley

hi fine ppl of 209 🫡. i hope you're hanging in there - only three (if mighty) modules left. i spent today crafting feedback for #SMEno3 (pls check canvas for yr comments!). between now & wed, pls live-tweet #hwa6 and devise #SMEno4. i am here and eager to help if anyone needs an ear. 🤝, ashley

happy to see many of you already knee-deep in module 8. claudia rankine asks how we should stay present in a world that keeps numbing itself. it’s about memory, survival, and media, and it couldn’t be more urgent right now. pls remember SME 3 is also due on sunday. things are speeding up. 💙, ashley

& in module 7: we trade the 👂 for the 👁️, question everything we see, and maybe realize “r/Real" life has been performing harder than any of us. even more importantly, i will have the immense pleasure of listening to your #SMEno2(s) over the next cpl of days. sending lots of 🫶, Ashley

hi 209, i hope you will enjoy your tumble down the 🐇🕳️ of #yingelishi in #hwa4. may the chaos inspire your #SMEno2 (due on Sunday). ping me if you need a hand or a vowel. here and happy to help. 🖤, Ashley

phew! just read yr #realityhunger posts (gr8 Qs, 209!). & welcome now to #hwa3: where aristotle, kanye west, & laurie anderson all want something r/Real from you. and/or in which i'm apparently stuck in this red t-shirt in perpetuity. looking forward to reading yr SME 1s over the next day. ❤️, Ashley

Welcome to Module 4: "r/Reality Construction": you'll respond to chapters a, b, e, and f from Shields' #realityhunger and complete #SMEno1. 🚪 If memory is always editing the past, does that make every memory a kind of fiction? 🚪 🫷🫸 ... see you in the 209 Bluesky-sphere 🤠🤡😎, Ashley

you've all been massaged, and now you can 🌀 in(to) #hwa2. i'll see you soon. yrs in 209 solidarity, Ashley

hope y'all are having fun in module 2 ✨💡: this weekend we’re in McLuhan's #TMITM (aka our first 209 anti-environment). think less tidy classroom, more playground. post screenshots, double chins, stray thoughts. 🫶, Ashley

new 209ers! you made it! 🎉 grab a seat, a thought, maybe a kazoo. the 209 Bluesky-sphere is officially open, and i'm waiting for you inside 🕳️ #hwa1 🕳️. excited to spend the next five weeks together. 💌, Ashley
