214: Nothing's Going to Change My Mind: How Unconditional Positive Regard Transforms Classrooms
The Cult of Pedagogy Podcast
09/18/23 • 37 min
At a time when student behaviors and attitudes seem more troubling than ever before, we may need to approach their behavior in a different way, too. In this episode, Alex Shevrin Venet returns to talk about unconditional positive regard, a philosophy that offers students care no matter what — they don't have to earn it, and nothing they do can make it go away. This approach can transform some of the most difficult student-teacher relationships, but it's not easy. Venet shows us how it works, why it works, and how teachers can get the support they need to navigate it.

EduTip 18: Avoid assignments that are TOO open-ended.
The Cult of Pedagogy Podcast
09/25/22 • 5 min
While it's true that student choice has a lot of value, it's possible to give so much choice in an assignment that it kind of backfires. When a task has little to no structure at all, students often respond with confusion, not creativity.

232: How Metacognition Can Optimize Learning
The Cult of Pedagogy Podcast
08/18/24 • 40 min
The act of thinking about our own thinking, or metacognition, plays a huge role in how well our brain holds on to information. If we can get a better understanding of how metacognition works, we can tap into it to improve our learning and teach our students to do the same. In this episode, cognitive scientist Megan Sumeracki explains how we can make that happen.

206: The Thinking Classroom: An Interview with Peter Liljedahl
The Cult of Pedagogy Podcast
03/05/23 • 42 min
In too many classrooms, our students aren't really thinking. What they're doing instead is more like mimicking, and my guest Peter Liljedahl is determined to change that. In this episode, we'll learn about his Thinking Classroom approach to instruction, where students are up on their feet, actively and collaboratively problem-solving, in a format that has taken the math world (and beyond) by storm.

EduTip 19: Help students learn each other's names.
The Cult of Pedagogy Podcast
01/15/23 • 7 min
The time students spend in your classroom may be the only opportunity they have all day to engage with other humans in any meaningful way. And it's such a shame to waste that by letting them stay in some sort of Matrix-like environment where they're only plugged into devices and rarely even look to the left or to the right. So take deliberate steps to help them get to know each other.
