Not at all surprised. Such hypocrites…

Save the date for our February Special, Math Cognition in Context. Join us on February 24 at 11am ET / 8am PT / 4pm GMT / 5pm CET for a research article discussion, facilitated by Nicholas Vest.

Just whispering “this is so bad” to myself over and over… a routine Friday night these days

Let’s be clear about something that maybe the wider public will get. Not only will this destroy research but it will also lead to huge tuition increases. Your kids’ college is about to get a lot more expensive.

NEW @nature.com article w/Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo, Liz Spelke + fantastic team! ☑️Children working can use arithmetic to solve problems in their shops, but struggle with abstract math ☑️Children in school can do abstract math, but cannot apply it www.nature.com/articles/s41...

No, we don't need investigations. We don't need Senators posting on social media. We need you to literally grind everything to a halt in the Senate & get in front of microphones on the Capitol steps calling for the fascists to resign & your GOP colleagues to vote with you to impeach & remove them.

I love this perspective! This is exactly what I say about screen use in young children as well. Will be taking inspiration from @lucyfoulkes.bsky.social as I work on my op ed :)

Hey if anyone is considering backing up any datasets for some reason today, the Open Science Framework has free storage up to 5G/private repository, and up to 50G/public repository. (The OSF is run by a 501c3 (Center for Open Science), so if you do this you might also consider making a donation.)

Here it is. This is abominable.

They didn’t operationalize this. We (PIs) shouldn’t do it for them.

This looks like part of a massive multi-faceted attack on scientists and universities from the Trump admin. They have cancelled funded federal grants, frozen NIH panels, promoted anti-scientific figures and conspiracy theorists like RFK Jr in positions of oversight. This is just beginning…

I love this 3yo.

Deadline is 2/28! Please email us with any questions you may have if you’re interested but unsure about your submission.

A great honor to have guest edited this special issue with @karlaholmboe.bsky.social and a fun editorial to write :)

Clancy Blair was a force in the fields of dev and ed psych and his work (and his students) has shaped academia, public policy, and medicine in meaningful ways. I had the great privilege of having Clancy as my grad mentor and his brilliance, generosity, and sense of fun will never stop inspiring me.

HDFS @ Purdue is hiring a research professor (assistant/associate level) focused on early childhood education. This position is a non-tenure, but promotable, track. View the ad and submit your materials at: careers.purdue.edu/job/Professo.... We will begin reviewing applications after January 2nd.

Happy Yam Sham to all!

The call for submissions for MCLS 2025 in Hong Kong (June 9-11) is now available! www.the-mcls.org/mcls-2025-ho... If you’re interested in joining on a symposium submission on early math interventions or on something related to geometry, let me know! I plan to organize a symposium on one of those.

It's almost like it's... poverty.... causing.... so... many.... social.... problems...
