I am so proud of some of my students today. I have some students who are super shy, and they got up in front of other students and participated in our stand-n-talks today. One of my students got emotional afterwards when she realized who great she had done. She was period of herself! What do you do to motivate your students to participate in activities?.

Maybe let them talk about things or ideas that they are interested in.

Agreed. In the past couple days, I have had students talk more about things than ever before.

Participation Points for prizes ($1-$10) $10 gift cards on a spinning wheel 1x 2x per semester (students receive Raffle Tickets for answers,, on task behavior attendance etc) 7th /8th graders like gift cards (Wheel has Sm,$-$2 Med $5-$7 Lg prizes $7-10 too)Makes class time fun and something to look forward to.

This is good. I like the idea of a wheel. I spend way more on my classes than a lot of teachers do. But it is worth it to me, if I can motivate and get participation.

Hi fishes,

This annual appraisal I have got a good % of appraisal increment on my salary but I was not promoted to a senior developer (although I have been mentoring a junior dev in my team and been part of building the project by implementing new technologies and tweaks) and my total YoE is 3.5+ years. What could be the reasons? What should I do now?

Thanks in advance!!

I'm a US citizen living abroad I applied almost 11 months ago for my spouse. Married for years, kid. I wait and wait. It seems this will take 2 years, maybe more. I feel trapped. On one side the US system demands I work and domicile in US, the other side says families should be prioritized to stay together. My spouse has had enough of the process. I feel trapped abroad and locked in a dysfunctional system. We're just in limbo, it's depressing

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(

Advice and/or consolation anyone? My wife and I (both above average health 30year olds) were trying for 11 months before getting pregnant and then had a week 5 early miscarriage a few months back. If the stress and surprise of just how difficult it apparently is to get pregnant wasn’t enough, the miscarriage put us over. We got back to it and have been trying for the last 2 months again, still no luck. We’re freaking out… all we want is a family. Any similar stories? Advice? 😢

Does your company conducts a proper UX research in a user centric way?

Did you join as a Product/UX UI designer and were told that they do UX design research, but later came to know that they just focus on UI part only?

Please mention the name of companies you know of, who invest in product design research.

This may help a lot of people who are starting their career in this field.
