Intentional Teaching

Questions or comments about this episode? Send us a text massage.

Welcome to the Intentional Teaching, a podcast aimed at educators to help them develop foundational teaching skills and explore new ideas in teaching. I’m your host, Derek Bruff.

I directed the Center for Teaching at Vanderbilt University for over a decade, and I’ve worked with faculty and other instructors at dozens of colleges and universities, helping them to become more intentional and effective teachers. I’ve written two books on teaching in higher education: Teaching with Classroom Response Systems: Creating Active Learning Environments and Intentional Tech: Principles to Guide the Use of Educational Technology in College Teaching. It’s that second book, which came out in 2019, that has inspired the title of this podcast and the companion newsletter I send out most Thursdays. I’m using “Intentional Teaching” to indicate that we should be intentional not only in how we teach, but also how we develop as teachers over time. I hope this podcast, featuring interviews with educators and researchers from across higher education, will be a valuable part of your professional development as an educator.

Embodied Learning with Susan Hrach

Questions or comments about this episode? Send us a text massage.

On today’s episode of Intentional Teaching, I bring you a fantastic interview with educator and author Susan Hrach. Susan is the director of the Faculty Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning at Columbus State University and the author of the 2021 book Minding Bodies: How Physical Space, Sensation, and Movement Affect Learning. I knew of Susan’s work in embodied learning, and I discovered recently that we share an interest in active learning spaces and how they can be used to support and enhance teaching and learning. I reached out to Susan to see if she could help me better understand the connections between our bodies and our learning spaces, and she gladly agreed.

In the interview, Susan describes some of the ways we use our bodies for learning, and she shares practical advice for faculty teaching on-site or online for recognizing and fostering embodied learning.
