Quotes from the episode

I saw people being asked to, like, completely revamp their entire course and learn how to online, but nothing was removed from their plate.
-Karen Costa

So the first question I want folks to ask themselves is what are my qualifications in this role.
-Karen Costa

Just because you are qualified to do it does not mean that it is yours.
-Karen Costa

I didn’t know what boundaries were until I was about 35 years old, and it’s taken me about 7 years of really challenging interpersonal work to understand what boundaries are and to feel confident in setting boundaries for myself.

[divwrap class=”one-half first”]

Quotes from the episode

As we deal with our local contexts, we adjust according to the culture of the people and how they learn.
-Leni Casimiro

Eventually I went to study and get a degree in about online education, then it really became a part of who I am today as an educator.
-Safary Wa-Mbaleka

The definition of online education is much more expanded, especially with a lot of the tools that are available today that facilitate collaboration.
-Safary Wa-Mbaleka

I believe that artificial intelligence is going to challenge everything that we knew about online education because at this point you can do a lot of things that we have no control over.
-Safary Wa-Mbaleka

When you open online courses, you are opening it to serve the whole world. So we need to bring in this global perspective of online education.

Show notes

Autumm Caines + Maya Barak help us with expanding our collective understanding of generative artificial intelligence (AI) on episode 501 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
[divwrap class=”one-half first”]

Quotes from the episode

It’s good to be skeptical.
-Autumm Caines

And I feel like a lot of times students sign up for all these accounts without reading the terms of service, without reading the privacy policy, without thinking about the data that we’re giving over, and without thinking about how that data could be used by a company.
-Autumm Caines

In a world of AI, it is becoming more important to be able to be more critical about the information that’s coming to us and to have better tools available to sort out the truth from the fiction or fictionalized.

**Fostering Neurodivergent Learners’ Growth, with Will Hennessy** Jan 04, 2024
Show notes

Will Hennessy shares about fostering neurodivergent learners’ growth on episode 499 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
[divwrap class=”one-half first”]

Quotes from the episode

Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder characterized by involuntary, internal and external tics that occur repeatedly in the same way. OCD is a neurological disorder that causes problems with information processing.
-Will Hennessy

I honestly thought that I just wasn’t as smart as my peers, that I just needed to try harder, or that one day, I guess, it would just kinda all click in my brain. Now, obviously, I know that’s not the case now, but that’s kind of where I was at.
-Will Hennessy

I want to create inclusive learning environments for neurodivergent learners and introverts, students like me.
-Will Hennessy

Structure is incredibly important for neurodivergent learners. Even though we’re implementing flexibility and choice, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it has to be a free for all where students can just do whatever they want, that could actually hinder learning.
-Will Hennessy

Neurodivergent learners need structure. All learners need need structure.
-Will Hennessy

[divwrap class=”one-half first”]

Quotes from the episode

When a novice teacher might observe a more experienced teacher, they’re not always going to notice the kinds of decisions that the teacher is making that aren’t verbalized.
-Stein Brunvand

It’s not so much about learning a specific tool, but being open to learning what’s available to you and using what you have available to you to try to improve the learning experience.
-Stein Brunvand

Let’s learn how can we be flexible and adaptable so that we can roll with whatever is available to us.
