I’ve posted a blog over on medium: https://medium.com/@kateringland/my-world-building-story-of-a-disabled-academic-cc9633560494
I wrote this blog post over a year ago and have sat on it since then. Today is the 5th anniversary of my most personally traumatic experience with the US healthcare system — the birth of my oldest child. Because of this anniversary I have chosen today to finally push the button and publish this. There is a lot going on in the world right now, but I am honoring myself by giving myself a little space to tell my own story.
Amidst all the quarantine madness, I realize I hadn’t yet announced what I’ll be doing for work next year! I’ve been award the University of California President’s Postdoc for this coming year. I’ll be working at University of California Santa Cruz in the Computational Media Department.
The UC President’s Postdoc is awarded to a limited number of applicants each year with the hope of improving diversity within tenure track faculty ranks in the University of California system. For the 2020-2021 cohort, there were 1032 applicants and they offered 37 awards. I am extremely honored to have been chosen!
I am transitioning to this new position at the beginning of July and I’ll be working remotely for the present, but I’m looking forward to continuing my research with disabled folks, play, games, and equity! I’ll be posting more in the future both about my experiences on the job market thus far and my plans for future research projects. Stay tuned!
I’m happy to announce that I will be the opening keynote at the Education in Games Summit this year in Melbourne, Australia, October 14. This summit is for school teachers to learn more about using games in their education practices. I’ll be talking about my Autcraft research, as well as speaking more broadly about how we can use games in inclusive education.
For this week’s blog, I thought I would share my “mock” TV interview that I did through the RSG program at Medill School of Journalism. Over the next couple of blog posts, I plan on distilling some of the lessons I’ve learned about doing interviews and talk about my experiences – both with this TV interview and the podcast.
Sneak preview: you should have at most 3 core ideas or things you want people to remember no matter the kind of conversation or talk you are giving. If someone is at a BBQ tomorrow and telling other people about their conversation with you (or the talk they heard you give or the interview they heard of yours), what do you want them to be able to remember and relay?
Without further ado, here is my very first live-to-tape TV interview!
