Alexis Peirce Caudell shares ways we cen go beyond dichtomous thinking: strategies to enhance teaching and learning on episode 527 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
It's about being able to sort of think across or beyond those boxes that we normally operate on every day.

Ann Taylor shares ways to offer accessible and affordable learning through open educational resources (OERs) on episode 526 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
I have been surprised at how some of us don't think about the cost of what we're requiring our students to use.
-Ann Taylor
It's the instructor that's making the difference, that's making the content come alive.
-Ann Taylor
If you're boring face to face and monotone or you just kinda mumble and separate, you're probably not gonna come across great recorded either.
-Ann Taylor
Text first, not video first.
-Ann Taylor
We start with the written word, and then we make sure that anywhere it's gonna make a difference or it's gonna engage the students, we incorporate multimedia pictures and graphics and interactive tools and video and so forth.

Amira Barger shares four common arguments against DEI and how to dismantle them on episode 525 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Many people who are at the margins often know from lived experience that the playing field is not level, and that there are biases that leaders and individuals across any and every institution have to mitigate.
-Amira Barger
Many people tend to view the work of diversity, equity, and inclusion as this sort of a 0 sum game. That idea of we're lifting someone else up means you have to push or bring someone else down. And that's not at all what we're trying to do this work.
-Amira Barger
It really is about leveling the playing field. It's not about taking things away, but it's about understanding.
-Amira Barger
What are you creating so that others can see themselves represented in the spaces they're in with you?
-Amira Barger
I try to very intentionally surround myself with people who believe and think differently than I do so that I can understand where they are coming from.
-Amira Barger
Jon Ippolito on a more critical framework for AI use (amongst other topics) on episode 524 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
We need to either rethink what intelligence means, beyond the scope of simply being articulate and knowledgeable when it comes to to putting words together, or we need to think about what other values we want to promote and encourage and teach that go beyond intelligence.
-Jon Ippolito
It's a problem because the average of 2 facts is not necessarily a fact.
-Jon Ippolito
Judith Dutill talks about communication literacy in the age of AI on episode 523 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
In the college classroom, we don't often emphasize that type of communication as a skill that's worth teaching, talking about, assessing, and we focus instead on more formal types of communication.
-Judith Dutill
Communication is a very subjective thing, but I think there is a common definition that we could all agree on that effective communication is creating meaning and being understood.
-Judith Dutill
As we develop in higher education, many of us believe in multiple literacies.
-Judith Dutill
If your discipline involves speaking and listening, communication is at the center of it.
