4/12 Week and links
Good morning. I will post a fuller update to this post on Tuesday or Wednesday, after I look at your review work in ELI. As for today, here is the AMA/OHitS google doc. I will be there between 9-1. For a bit of joy, look at this short animation by SF, former student. She used Biorender and Flipaclip. Read more about Biorender by heading over to the AMA/OHitS document linked above.
See you soon.
Here is today's AMA/OHitS. I think I will post an ELI task for REVISION PLAN. How will you revise your document based on what you have learned from:
- your review of the work of others AND
- what others note about your document.
Thinking I will post tonight and have due on April 21, Tuesday evening, 11.45. Will listen to feedback from you in the linked document above.
Audio note, if you like. I would like to put a little background music in this but have not figured that out yet. If you know how and would like to help, let me know. My brain is not working as well as I would like. Hope your brains -- and hearts -- are holding up.
Happy Friday, dear Science Writing Enthusiasts.
Here is our AMA+OHitS google doc for the day. I expect more questions than on Monday and Friday, as you will see a REVISION TASK in ELI Review. I shifted the due date to

Giving you a bit more time to think about revising your document. Your Revision Plan should respond to what your colleagues suggested AND my five-page Checklist (linked in your ELI Review Revison Plan Task),
After today's AMA+OHitS, I will record a short audio file to capture this content, for those of you who prefer a "sound" experience rather than the visual experience of typing.
OPTIONAL side discussion on the ETHOS of our voices: Why do our voices sound so strange to our ears? Explainer here. This BBC platform features a 3-minute YouTube video from the "Head Squeeze" series. Greg Foot sports that British accent, which is for many of us, a sort of upper. class ethos.
Related: What is vocal fry? Wikipedia is a good place to start. Then, read this Johns Hopkins Medicine take. Wonder if I can learn to minimize this tendency BEFORE I record today's audio clip? Here is an 8-minute video reflection on vocal fry plus upspeak by an actor/voice coach. I am getting ahead of myself. You may want to listen to the social analysis news clip below first. I linked to Amy Walker's video because I asked my friends MK and JM, professional actors, about my voice in these recordings. Both referred me to Walker.
And, here is the interesting and serious social analysis of when vocal fry harms women (a CBC 2-minute clip form 2015).
