James AkersI made my Mirror World class some bling out of 6mm glass tubulation. We can all laugh and be shiny together now. I actually didn't make myself one though. I guess I can make it tomorrow. I bent it to my handwriting in cursive with a 6mm sharpie :) . lol happened to be an easy an fun 3 letter phrase that flows nicely. I sure do love mirroring a bunch of little tubes simultaneously :)I gotta get a few feet of bright colored silicone or latex tubing. They are meant to be necklaces. They may be fragile during hugs.Its been nice to teach these classes with Kacie Lees in the evenings and decompress from the hectic week finishing up neon work things ahead of an upcoming midwest road trip! Class and show in Minneapolis and visiting artist 2 day at UW, Madison. We mirrored so much.

Trevor BurrowsAlthough this is a dumpster fire of a day, we did launch our final project of the term in my Intro to Public History class: a project proposing/revising historical markers in our area.Students got themselves into two groups based around themes of their choice. They'll work to develop their theme into a "big idea" for an alternative historical tour. Every student will propose a new marker, or a revision to a current marker, and the groups will frame their set of markers as a tour. We'll then create those tours digitally (probably using ArcGIS Story Maps for ease of use).<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HigherEd</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Teaching</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Histodons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Histodons</a>
