The Emotional Labor of Teaching
In this episode, Angela speaks with guests about a topic not often discussed in higher education or faculty development, the emotional side of teaching. Guests Maggie Ervin, Autumn Cartagena, and Stephanie Blaher reflect on what it means to consider the emotional labor involved in teaching, how to manage it and support your students in the process. Topics include the emotional challenges of teaching college students, the social and relational elements of teaching and learning, and how emotion can and should be built into existing processes, faculty training and support.
We thank our wonderful guests for their vulnerability, humility and excellent suggestions!
