Meeting the Moment Through Inclusive Teaching, with Michael Benitez and Meredith Flynn.
Pedagogy is truly a craft. It is an art and requires us to be attentive to it.
-Michael Benitez
As educators, we want to make sure that we create really welcoming environments and that our learning environments promote equitable and successful outcomes for our students.
-Meredith Flynn
Amy Sprowles and Matt Johnson on episode 342 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
We became much more aware and knowledgeable about what place-based learning means to other people and other groups.
-Amy Sprowles
Place-based learning rests on the power of immersing students, faculty and staff in the place and recognizing the heritage, culture, landscape, geography, plants, animals and rocks and how those things interact with each other to illustrate to students how so many disciplines are interconnected.
-Matt Johnson
You cannot talk about the place without talking about the Indigenous people that have been there since time immemorial.
-Matt Johnson
Susan Roll and Jennifer Wilking share their experience teaching a multidisipilnary course together on episode 341 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
It was really fascinating to see how students across these three disciplines had different orientations from day one to this issue of homelessness.
-Jennifer Wilking
One of the real benefits to interdisciplinary teaching is the exposure to different perspectives.
-Jennifer Wilking
Students have such a deeper understanding when they’re actually doing the research rather than just hearing about research methods.
-Jennifer Wilking
Once they have an experience and actually talk to a person who is experiencing homelessness, all of those preconceptions start to drop away; and that’s the beauty of doing research too.

Episode 234 with Maria Andersen: A new lens to support learning outcomes

Heather Castillo and MiRi Park share about humanized online dance classes (and dance as protest) on episode 340 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
When I went to college I was being modeled into this modern dancer, I didn’t necessarily know what that meant, but I still wanted to be the best.
-MiRi Park
I think of them as people who do dance, as opposed to merely dancers. They are human beings that have histories of arrival and each person is unique, so there is never going to be just one story.
-MiRi Park
There was never a doubt in either of our minds that this could be done.
-Heather Castillo
Why keep the information to myself when I can share it with others?
-MiRi Park
