In this episode, we arrive at an inevitable part of the process of learning: failure. But do students understand that failure is inevitable at some, or many, points? 

This episode is a three-way conversation between your host, STEM advisor William Golston, and professor of Political Science TJ Kimmel. Together, we compare experience with failure in education and our two guests talk about how they engage with student failure by talking about their own.

We'll ask a lot of questions and explore possibilities that working in higher education both opens up and closes down. What does it mean that failure is inevitable? What can we offer students who are currently failing or that have failed in the past? How can we understand each other's work and biography better to help each other and students? Join us to begin the kind of conversation we think could open up some important possibilities in teaching students to learn how to learn.
