In today’s edition of What People Will Say to Avoid Saying Disabled: “people with limitations” 😤 #SayDisabled
Not enough people are talking about the tragic loss of Jif peanut butter in this year of our lord. Hit me with the alt PB recs, I’m desperate
Am I citing this tweet in my dissertation proposal on inclusive design? Yes, yes I am. #AcademicTwitter
Idea for tech students who design stair-climbing wheelchairs: invent a power wheelchair with a back-up battery to alleviate anxiety that comes from getting stuck due to dead battery. Maybe solar-operated? And call it the Solar Roller (TM). That would actually be world-changing.
And above all, good designers lead with humility, curiosity, and empathy that each human life is worth understanding and accounting for. What do you think? What are the things that good designers do? 4/4
Good designers seek to build a more inclusive, joyful, and equitable future. Good designers push for radical change while also recognizing that our lives are the culmination of small moments. 3/
Exercise for designers and design researchers: Someone asked me this week, “when you talk to someone and say “Good designers do ‘X’”, what are the top things you list?” #DesignTwitter
I have arrived. I just received an invitation to a dog’s second birthday party and never been more sure that I have found my people 🐶🥳
Laura Murphy retweeted
I think many of us "elder" crip academics know this, but I want to say explicitly that disabled students do NOT have to register with disability services. (a short thread thinking through disability services after Harvard revelations)
How many journal articles have I read over the years? And now I'm one of them 🥲 Feels amazing to see my work published like this #DesignTwitter #AcademicTwitter rdcu.be/cGDGl
Years in the making...my first journal article was just published! A study comparing idea generation outcomes from individual brainstorming and design heuristics. tl;dr different methods produce different kinds of ideas #PhDChat #AcademicTwitter rdcu.be/cGDGl
Super interesting perspective & great discussion in the replies
As a DeafBlind person, I feel torn about the trend of people describing their physical appearance during meetings for those who are blind/low vision. I appreciate the effort to make things more accessible and inclusive. Truly & deeply, but-- 1/
Laura Murphy retweeted
A conference: "We are fully accessible!" Also the conference: "We will be running from 9am - 7pm" Me: *laughs in chronic pain and energy impairment*
An engineer told me recently: “even if designs are only meant to be functional, they should also be aesthetic.” I mean, yes. And as a friend of mine said, “that’s like saying, ‘I like this building. It’s so architectural.’” #DesignTwitter
One of my favorite things is needing a citation, remembering your friend has written about the topic, and then going to their Google scholar profile to find and cite their work 🥲 It’s the little things #PhDChat #AcademicTwitter
@Pratibha977 @PhD_Genie @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice I’ll jump on the Zotero train here. I like that we can have a shared library as a lab but I can also develop my own library and organizational system. Plus I love love love the way zotero integrates with word and how it manages PDFs so I can access an article so easily
