    "I dug around and found some answers for the ideal lengths of tweets and titles and everything in between. Many of these could have been answered with "it depends," but where's the fun in that? Solid research exists to show the value of writing, tweeting, and posting at certain lengths. We can learn a lot from scientific social media guidelines like these. Here's the best of what I found."

  • In 2005 researchers at the University of Connecticut asked a group of seventh graders to read a website full of information about the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus, or Octopus paxarbolis. The Web page described the creature’s leafy habitat, diet and mating rituals in precise detail. Then, applying an analytical model they’d learned, the students evaluated the trustworthiness of the site and the information it offered.   Their assessment? The tree octopus was legit. All but one of the pupils rated the website as “very credible.” T

They’re small business owners and workers. That’s why you’re starting to hear echoes of their concerns in the rhetoric of both Rand Paul and Elizabeth Warren.
  • Up-and-down income. Double taxation. No benefits. No safety net. And a government and culture that still doesn’t understand them or the way they work.

In addition to those essential relationships, it’s key that members of this community represent diverse backgrounds–critical for the creative tension that often arises from confronting different points of view.

It also comes on the eve of ISTE 2015—the largest gathering of education technology enthusiasts in the U.S. The company spokesman said Amplify will be well-represented at ISTE, although the company did not release advance press coverage about products that will be showcased there.

  • Social media is crucial not only because it provides a fast way to share information, but also because it makes faculty workloads more transparent.
  • What’s also crucial about Facebook and Twitter is that they make clear the fact that faculty workloads stretch beyond teaching. Announcements of the talks we give, the articles we write, the exhibits we organize, the fellowships we win, and our media appearances emphasize that some of us work on contracts in which about half of our time is supposed to be devoted to research.

  • Part-time or other flexible work policies are a sore spot; they look great on paper, but few employees take advantage of them: McKinsey research has found that less than 1 percent of men or women did so at companies offering such options at the executive level. Clearly, policies that aren’t much used are great opportunities for management discussions, and while these conversations can be uncomfortable, they can also lead to new ways of working.
