I’m starting to do some speaking again, and now that Japan has opened
back up for travel, I’m very pleased to be giving a couple of talks
later this month:
On November 19, I will be speaking at Waseda University,
hosted by Tetsuya Sakai.
On November 20, I will be giving a keynote talk at IBIS
2022 (Information-Based Induction Sciences). Thank you very much to
Toshihiro Kamishima for inviting me!
I’ll have a little time around the edges of my trip, so if you are in
Tokyo and would like to connect, send me an e-mail and let’s see what we
can arrange. Or say hi at IBIS!

As long as I have been teaching, I’ve used a “late day” policy in
most of my classes. I designed this policy after learning about
universal course design while taking Preparing Future Faculty
at the University of Minnesota, but I don’t think I’ve ever publicly
written down the motivations and design of this policy. So here you
go!
A few years ago, early in my first faculty position, I wrote about how I tracked academic work. I
still implement the core ideas of that piece, but most of the details
have changed; I thought now, after working on my first annual review
after applying for tenure, would be a good time to write an update.
It has been a couple of years, hasn’t it? I thought I would do
another state of the tools. Last year I
had other things on my mind and didn’t get to this kind of thing, but
let’s give it a whirl.
