Gettin' Air with Blair Niblett. Dr. Niblett is Associate Professor in the School of Education at Trent University. This episode was brought to you by Trent University's Centre for Teaching and Learning. The CTL produces a wonderful monthly newsletter called Teaching Notes and February's newsletter is focused on care and kindness in education. We thought an interview with Dr. Niblett, whose scholarship has love and care in pedagogy at its core, would be just the thing to include. As such, Blair's journey to enact an ethic of care as a pedagogical paradigm is central to the discussion.
