The Now: January 25, 2023

Yesterday, I found out that my proposal to speak at the 2023 CALM conference was accepted. I did a little jig in my cube. The conference is not until June so I have some time to prepare. I'm debating if it's worthwhile to harness some of my excitement to outline my session this week. I probably won't get to it, but I'm at least thinking about it.

Here's what I am working on.
  1. Research Assignment Design: We are [thisclose] to finishing our first pass of joint transcript coding. We should wrap that up in our working session tomorrow. Then we are going to take a break from that coding to analyze and code the syllabi and assignments. Qualitative research is a long slog, but at least we have a lot to work with out of this data set.
  2. Website Updates: I took a break from working on our website because my brain needed it. I'm feeling refreshed and read to tackle this. Today, I put together a survey to gather some "vibe check" data about what people like and don't like about our website. While responses roll in, I'll start working on some of the low-hanging fruit updates like changing our header and updating some links. Then I'm going to tackle updating the nav bar. Once I figure out how to do that, I should be able to roll right through it.
  3. Annual Planning: Last week, the husband and I embarked on a mission to plan out our annual leave for the year. Between our kiddo's daycare closures, work travel, and other happenings, we wanted to get this down on the books early. We finalized our plan and I got approval for all my leave from my boss. That lead to one plane ticket purchase and price tracking on another. It feels real good to have a handle on this so early.
