    Quotes from the episode

    Not everything that comes your way is an emergency. Not everything that comes your way has to demand your immediate attention.

    Not everything that comes your way is an emergency. Not everything that comes your way has to demand your immediate attention.
    -Matthew Mahavongtrakul

    Once you are comfortable with your system and you’re iterating, it actually starts to become second nature, not only to professional life, but to personal life as well.
    -Matthew Mahavongtrakul

    An exercise that I did with my supervisor once was to actually go through each of these tasks and to see what I thought was high priority, was it actually high priority for the job that I was in?

    Keeping Your PKM Real Simple with RSS Mar 19, 2026
    Show notes

    Bonni Stachowiak shares how to keep your Personal Knowledge Mastery (PKM) real simple with RSS on episode 614 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
    [divwrap class=”one-half first”]

    Quotes from the episode

    It's pretty spectacular how, if somebody knows about RSS, and they've subscribed to a blog or a website, how you can find people that you have a lot in common with, and get going with your curiosity.

    Rather than get that overwhelmed feeling of how hard it’s going to be to keep up, I don’t have to, and neither do you. Enter RSS, Real Simple Syndication.
    -Bonni Stachowiak

    -Bonni Stachowiak

    It’s amazing what happens when, before we start trying to lecture or share information, we ask people to predict something. Even if they end up predicting incorrectly, there still is that connection where we’ve piqued their curiosity.

    Skepticism and Curiosity in the Age of AI, with Marc Watkins Mar 12, 2026
    Show notes

    Marc Watkins shares about cultivating skepticism and curiosity in an age of AI on Episode 613 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
    [divwrap class=”one-half first”]

    Quotes from the episode

    I do think online education is going to be the focal point for this next year, and how it can survive with an agentic AI. My feeling is, we need to be offering students more embodied experiences and disembodied spaces.

    -Marc Watkins

    Every technology has its affordances and the things that are negative about it too; your cell phone, the computer, the fact we’re talking about this right now on the systems that we are using, cloud computing, that all has a cost.
    -Marc Watkins

    For an incoming freshman student in college to take 4 or 5 classes and have 4 or 5 very different AI policies, 4 or 5 very different understandings of what AI is, it is incredibly confusing.

    Lynn Meade uncovers how to make learning visible with portfolios on episode 612 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast
    [divwrap class=”one-half first”]

    Quotes from the episode

    Anytime I teach portfolios, it's really big that we talk about audience and purpose. Who is your audience and what is your purpose?

    An ePortfolio is basically a curated collection of student work. It includes reflection, and it’s usually across the college experience.
    -Lynn Meade

    -Lynn Meade

    There’s something particularly lovely about seeing student or faculty members’ written comments about my work. Both the critiques and those comments that build me up, and how very powerful they are, and how much they mean to me.
    -Lynn Meade

    It’s not about the tech. The most important thing is, am I writing? Am I able to think about myself? Am I able to reflect about myself?

    Great teaching, and I think great life, is this adaptive, responsive thing, pulling out the bugs or getting things back in balance.
    -Danny Mann

    Peace and joy are really interrelated, and I gravitated a lot towards these, as I spent time studying and practicing mindfulness practices.
    -Danny Mann

    If you discover your why, you could basically feel much more energized and joyful about what you do, if you align your life with that.
    -Danny Mann

    Giving students space to speak and share ups and downs. So the ironic leading by listening.

    Show notes

    Josh Brake shares metaphors and other ethical considerations regarding AI on Episode 607 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
    [divwrap class=”one-half first”]

    Quotes from the episode

    When you're moving fast, it's really easy to do things unreflectively and to make a poor decision without even realizing it.

    “When you’re moving fast, it’s really easy to do things unreflectively and to make a poor decision without even realizing it.”
    -Josh Brake

    “The special thing about bicycles, at least in their non-electronic versions, is that they’re totally human-powered. So it’s all based on the energy that you put in, and it’s just transforming that energy, to make you more efficient and be able to move faster.”
    -Josh Brake

    “When you have something like an E bike, that augmentation can be used in a variety of different ways, so it can be used to actually extend your capacity.”
    -Josh Brake

    “It’s really this question about what’s the intention that you’re bringing to the technology when you come to the tool, what are the questions that you’re asking? And fundamentally, it’s a question of purpose and intention. Why are you using this?”

    Quotes from the episode

    Curiosity is just this sort of force of nature. So tap in to your students creativity, your students passions and interests as a way to support them in reaching and achieving those challenges that you also hold for them.
    -Karen Costa

    That’s a heavy thing for folks with ADHD to carry, that we are a burden on the other students in the classroom, that we are a burden on our teachers. And that is simply not true.
    -Karen Costa

    What we know now is that many times those are what are called stims in neurodivergent and ADHD and autistic communities. And those are actually a way that a lot of folks help themselves to stay present and regulated in their bodies so that they can direct their attention to the teacher or to the task at hand.
    -Karen Costa

    The best thing we can do to make the course real is as an instructor to be present in that online course.
