Tamara (Tami) Shetron shares a vision of higher education for all (including those with intellectual and developmental disabilities on episode 507 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode

Everyone can learn.

My background is in a field called developmental education, which is some people used to call it remedial education, but the term evolved into developmental because remedial is the idea of fixing things, whereas developmental follows more the natural human cycle of growing and developing across the lifespan.

What makes these programs different from a normal, typical college experience is they are designed to help students get employment.

with Justin Shaffer

| February 22, 2024 | XFacebookLinkedInEmail

Justin Shaffer shares how to use high structure course design to heighten student learning on episode 506 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode

Some students might be doing just fine with the traditional, maybe unstructured class. But we know from evidence, lots of research now shows that this type of structure does help students.

-Justin Shaffer

The keyword through all 3 steps is alignment.
-Justin Shaffer

I don't think the structure necessarily guarantees success because it's the students ultimately have to put the work in to earn that grade, to earn that outcome.

How Role Clarity and Boundaries Can Help Us Thrive

with Karen Costa

| February 15, 2024 | XFacebookLinkedInEmail

Karen Costa shares how role clarity and boundaries can help us thrive on episode 505 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode

I saw people being asked to, like, completely revamp their entire course and learn how to online, but nothing was removed from their plate.
-Karen Costa

So the first question I want folks to ask themselves is what are my qualifications in this role.
-Karen Costa

Just because you are qualified to do it does not mean that it is yours.
-Karen Costa

I didn't know what boundaries were until I was about 35 years old, and it's taken me about 7 years of really challenging interpersonal work to understand what boundaries are and to feel confident in setting boundaries for myself.
-Karen Costa
