PsychSessions: Conversations about Teaching N' Stuff

Latest Episodes:

GST016 (Season 3, Episode 0): The One with the Bleep Trailer May 29, 2021

Show notes

In this third season of Garth and Sue talk, the duo chats with special guests about a teaching topic, and then they riff. But there's a twist: while Garth has invited the guests, Sue has no idea who is going to show up. Each episode is a surprise - to her - and it turns out, this was a great idea. The conversations are fantastic, like the kind of casual and inspiring chats you might have at a restaurant after a long day at a teaching conference. So, please pull up a seat as we talk about teaching.

E119: Eric Landrum: What Goes Around Comes Around, Or, The Wake-Up Call Edition May 25, 2021

Show notes

In this episode Garth interviews PsychSessions co-founder Eric Landrum from Boise State University in Boise, ID. In November 2019, during a PsychSessions working meeting in Boise, Eric surprised Garth with a request to record a PsychSessions interview (Episode #074). In their first meeting face-to-face since the pandemic, Garth and Eric met again in Boise, and it was only fair that Eric sit still, be patient, and answer Garth's delightful interview questions. You might want to recharge the batteries because this guy is long-winded, but attempting to be a leader during a pandemic with a health scare can make a fella talkative.

Show notes

In this episode Eric interviews Molly Metz from the University of Toronto in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Growing up as a first gen student, she was destined for social psychology from the start. She selflessly gives of her time and talent, investing in her teaching, leading the Early Career Psychologists, and served as the admin for the popular STP Facebook group. She thinks deeply about the application of psychology to our lives, especially self-determination theory. We benefit from her overachiever status.
