The NIEHS Superfund Research Program (SRP) is sponsoring a Risk e-Learning webinar series, hosted by CLU-IN, focused on research efforts to develop tools for sampling, monitoring, detecting, and characterizing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination. The three-part series will feature SRP-funded researchers and collaborators whose research focuses, in part, on understanding the distribution and fate of PFAS in the environment. The first session will feature SRP-funded investigators working on innovative methods to classify and/or quantify PFAS compounds. To learn about and register for the other sessions in this webinar series, please see the SRP website. Diana Aga, Ph.D., of the State University of New York at Buffalo (University at Buffalo) will discuss work affiliated with her R01 grant, Model-aided Design and Integration of Functionalized Hybrid Nanomaterials for Enhanced Bioremediation of Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances. Discussed will be various complementary techniques used to identify and quantify known and unknown PFAS in complex environmental samples, such as liquid chromatography (LC) with high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), combustion ion chromatography (CIC), and fluorine nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (19F-NMR). Diana will examine the advantages and limitations of these techniques in terms of their applications in PFAS analysis in wastewater and biosolids samples. Erin S. Baker, Ph.D., of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will illustrate how combining liquid chromatography, ion mobility spectrometry and mass spectrometry enables the evaluation of a broader range of chemical exposure, while uncovering novel species yet to be reported. Throughout life, people are frequently exposed to both naturally occurring and human-made chemicals such as PFAS. Associating these exposures to health risks can however be quite difficult since, for example, there are over 14,000 PFAS listed in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's PFAS Master List but only a few hundred standards available for targeted analytical tests and highlights how non-targeted approaches are of great importance. Lee Ferguson, Ph.D., of Duke University will focus on the development of novel non-targeted, high-resolution mass spectrometry methods and cheminformatics approaches for characterizing PFAS in the environment. He will discuss applications of these methods to assessment of PFAS contamination in drinking water and wastewater in North Carolina.

We made it?! I don't know if it was that we had our expectations too high or that the pandemic has broken us all, but the 2021-2022 school year was rough. With that in mind, we are going to hunt for the silver linings to the storm cloud that was this past school year. Show Notes: We start this show with the goofy question: What is one of your favorite things to do by yourself on a completely free, unscheduled day? Joining us from Texas, Lee Ferguson: catching up on TV, shopping Joining us from Wisconsin is Sedate Kohler: Walk my dog to Starbucks and listen to music (maybe sing out loud to the world as I do it) Joining us from Ohio is Tanea Hibler: Walk my dog, dance in my living room, roller skate, maybe record a podcast. LOL!! Aaron: Take myself out to lunch with a book. Questions Discussed in this episode: - What was one of your best interactions with students from the school year? - What is one thing you learned or got better at during the past 2 years of teaching? - What are you most looking forward to about Summer 2022?

- We Introduced ourselves (Aaron Introduces the show, then Tanea, Ryan, Lee) Order will be Aaron, Joining us from Arizona is Tanea Hibler, joining us from Missouri is Ryan Lacson, and joining us from Texas is Lee Ferguson. - What is your go to winter holiday movie (or other media, tv show, song, etc)? Tanea: I just watched Jingle Jangle and it was great Ryan: A Charlie Brown Christmas & Home For Christmas by NSYNC Lee: The Christmas Story, the Whiffenpoofs rendition of “O Holy Night” (or the West Wing version if you prefer) Aaron: White Christmas & A Charlie Brown Christmas Soundtrack by the Vince Guaraldi Trio's - Today we say goodbye to 2020. It has easily been the worst year ever, but we have all had some wins this year. What is one good thing you will take from the past 12 months? Tanea: Kids do really want to learn and they have made me feel appreciated Ryan: Everyone involved with education is incredibly resilient. Teachers are working their behinds off and are making the best of a bad situation. Kids are dealing with all of these transitions (in person, virtual, synchronous, asynchronous) like champs. We are all learning what is truly important. Lee: We have had to innovate on the fly, and hopefully some of the good will stick around post-pandemic. Aaron: Feedback > Grading - Aaron makes the rest of the panelists play a 2020 themed game! - We would love feedback! DM or Tweet @lifeoftheschool and share what you learned in 2020.

Has your grading philosophy changed during a pandemic? Our Panel this week is Aaron Mathieu from Massachusetts, Joining us from Arizona is Tanea Hibler, Joining us from Missouri is Ryan Lacson, and joining us from Texas is Lee Ferguson. Opening Question: What is your favorite type of pie? Is it different for different holidays? How have you adjusted your grading this year? Aaron: This year my grading philosophy is driven by the Churchill quote “Never let a good crisis go to waste” Revisions on almost everything. No late points taken off. Lee: we did away with weighted categories this year and the world has not ended! Kids are actually much more relaxed and feel less stressed since every assignment goes into the same grade bucket rather than having some assignments being weighted at higher percentages than others. Prior to the pandemic we allowed resubmissions with revisions on assignments anyway so that’s not a new thing for us. I’ve been modeling a lot of my grading practice now after Paul Strode, whose point-less approach is one that I feel provides students opportunities for more reflection and growth than traditional grading practices do. Ryan: As I’ve said before, I teach in a rural area that does not have good internet coverage, so I’ve had to be very flexible with students submitting assignments. Unfortunately, as a byproduct of multiple preps, simultaneous online/F2F learning, and the need to simply survive, I’ve had to pull back on some of my more standards-based grading. I hope to adopt a “gradeless, Paul Strode” approach to my dual-credit A&P class, but with the uncertainty of the school year, the stylistic differences between the university and the gradeless approach, and the levels of confusion already being through the roof, I decided to stick with the traditional grading system Tanea: Yes, flexibility and grace is key right now What will be the legacy of the pandemic be on your approach to grading? Tanea: Evolve and do better. There are alternatives that can lead to amazing learning experiences. Ryan: I’ve always been flexible with assignments because I want grades to be indicative of learning, not behavior, so I don’t think the pandemic has really affected my approach to grading in that regard. I do think that, unfortunately, my need to survive the pandemic has led me to be less innovative with my grading, as I discussed earlier. Lee: definitely the provision of feedback and pre-grading evaluation opportunities for students. Aaron: I hope it is the community and connection I have worked on will allow me to humanize my approach to grading. I know I will never know everything going on in my students' lives that lead to the choices they are making, but I hope I am typing to develop a system so that students are more willing to share.
