WORKING OUT LOUD
John Stepper’s book about Working Out Loud
Studied his own teaching and determined that those who came to class and those who watched via video did equally well in the class
I feel like I’m just breaking through now. I remember what it was like at the beginning.
ELICITING FEEDBACK
Waiting until the end of the semester to get input from our students is too late
Evaluations are valuable; but it only helps you the next time you teach the class
Formal, anonymous surveys
Customized end of semester surveys
* mid-semester surveys
* discussion boards
https://piazza.com
in person:
* talking to students after class
* office hours
* regular lunches with students
* Reporting back about what you learned what your changing to respond

Department-wide early warning systems—We’re trying this this year to give students in all our classes a chance to air concerns to the department early enough so we can do something about them.

Teaching Through Experiences
Teaching in Higher Ed
11/09/23 • 40 min
Stephen Bloch-Schulman talks about teaching through experiences on episode 491 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Quotes from the episode
When students tell me what they think their beliefs are, what I’m hearing is what they wish they believe, not what they believe.
-Stephen Bloch-Schulman
I think what we’re doing when we’re talking about beliefs is often just naming how we wish we were.

Intersectionality, Power, and Pedagogy
Teaching in Higher Ed
06/13/24 • 45 min
Clarissa Sorensen Unruh shares about intersectionality, power, and pedagogy on episode 522 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Quotes from the episode
It is hard for students to accurately think about what their learning process looked like.
-Clarissa Sorensen Unruh
Not only is the system rigged for a certain dominant group, but it is purposefully sabotaging some groups.
-Clarissa Sorensen Unruh
The unfortunate thing about intersectionality is that once you start seeing the power lenses, you can never go back to not seeing the power lenses.
-Clarissa Sorensen Unruh
Our goal is not to get burnt out.

Connections Are Everything
Teaching in Higher Ed
09/07/23 • 37 min
Isis Artze-Vega and Oscar Miranda Tapia discuss Connections Are Everything on episode 482 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Quotes from the episode
If it’s not working for you and you can’t maintain a certain level of wellness, then it’s not working. No matter what you’re seeing happen in your students, it is not working because it cannot happen at the cost of your wellness.
– Isis Artze-Vega
It’s about being present.
– Isis Artze-Vega
The relationship that you have with someone does not have to be this long sustained, always impactful kind of relationship. That one short conversation with a student may be the words or the sentence that they need to hear that day.
