Teaching in Higher Ed

Brian LaDuca shares about applied creativity for transformation on episode 279 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

How do you take the concept of novel new knowledge and those aha moments and give them purpose?

We have to find a way to find these micro campuses on the campus to create pivots.

It’s the ambiguity that is the lock and key to the content and the resulting action is the tension.

The right and wrong answer isn’t nearly as important as your ability to filter down ideas, work together in ideas, and move ideas back into the system again.

Applied creativity inevitably has to be applied to something.

Meet the student where they are, in what they do, and how they think.

Derek Bruff discusses his book, Intentional Tech: Principles to Guide the Use of Educational Technology in College Teaching.

We’re learning from and with each other- and that is what I liked to call a learning community.

I love using technology to help students bring their unique perspectives and experiences to the conversation.

There is a different level of student engagement that happens when students know they are writing or creating for the public.

Our pedagogy needs to inform how we use our technology.

We learn better when we encounter new things through multiple modalities.

Edward Leach shares about Reaching All Learners Through Innovation and Teaching Excellence on episode 276 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

There isn’t a lot of focus on what it means to teach at a community college, which is totally different than being at a four-year institution.

The most critical aspect of the teaching and learning process are the faculty members in the classroom.

Melanie Sage, Nancy Smyth, and Laurel Iverson Hitchcock share how they wrote a book with people they met on Twitter on episode 275 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Twitter had sort of a democratizing impact across our ranks.

What does it mean to be connected as humans across technology?

Technology is just a tool — we’re trying to do relationships like we would in any other space.

Sarah Cavanagh shares about her new book, HIVEMIND, on episode 274 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

We can enter a state of mind in which we join our social partners almost in a collective sort of consciousness.

Our ideas about the world are collectively sourced almost as much as they are individual.

We’re dividing into different camps and I think that’s dangerous.

Viji Sathy and Kelly Hogan share about inclusified evaluation of our teaching on episode 271 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

We want structure built into the way we teach, not just in the course design and facilitation.

When we don’t have structure in place, certain people are disadvantaged.

We think students should have a voice … but how that information is used is really important to think about.

How do we actually know that they’re learning what we intend for them to learn?

David Gooblar shares about his new book, The Missing Course*, on episode 279 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

The students are the material.

We don’t teach material, we teach human beings.

It’s less about a technique and more about your mindset.

How you think is ten times more important to me than what you think.

Jaime Hannans shares about empathy and extended reality on episode 270 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

I saw I could make a bigger impact if I taught.

Knowing how to navigate your space is a hurdle when you’re going into a new semester.

The debriefing is the key area where you can reflect on your learning.
