Required Readings, 4 July 2013

Greetings, teachers and learners! Did you enjoy your bratwursts and fireworks? Or if you’re in the UK, did you shake your fists at “the one that got away”? Regardless, I’ve got some required reading for you to complete. Better late than never. And I know you’ve been waiting all day for me, too.

Mapping Children’s Chances – Color coded maps of the world showing progress, or lack thereof, on issues related to children’s well-being.

The Humanities in a Dubious Battle – “There’s such a bright future for people with a degree in the Classics”, said no one ever.

‘Disaster University’ to Address Earthquakes and Tsunamis – Isn’t ‘Disaster University’ the next Michael Bay movie?

Professor’s “Fat Shaming” Tweet was “not research”, says review board – But that joke he told in the office totally was. I’m joking. Or am I? This whole post is “research”.
