Pedagogy A-Go-Go

For the final installment of our pandemic pedagogy roundtable discussions, Gina and Tom sit down with Samuel Chen and Kelly Allen to talk about how the present political atmosphere in the U.S. is impacting the way we teach. Listen in as they discuss strategies for addressing potentially polarizing topics and attitudes in the classroom and why these sometimes difficult conversations are exactly what we need to create an engaged and critical thinking citizenry. In our segment on self-care, it appears that adult beverages are again a popular remedy for dealing with a long day.

This roundtable conversation is the second installment in our pandemic pedagogy series. Topics covered in this episode are white supremacy, the work that needs to be done, and how this is all complicated further by our virtual learning environment. In our segment on self care, learn about the power of wine and that No is a complete sentence.

And we’re back! COVID-19 had forced us to step away from the microphones so we could focus on our students, our families, and ourselves. For this return episode we’ve decided to change things up a bit and rather than focus on the teaching of our guest(s), we chose to put together a team of educators and spend some time discussing the impact we’ve observed that the pandemic has had on the world of academia. So please join us as hosts Gina and Tom welcome Becca and Kelly to the microphones for our first pandemic pedagogy podcast.
