A podcast about language diversity and learning design from campus to corporate
In this episode, Sarah and Katherine speak with Andrew Tobey. Andrew is a linguist with a knack for technology who works as a multilingual instructional designer in the corporate space.
Andrew begins the conversation with a personal story about how multilingualism shaped his childhood, and talks more generally about the importance of immersing yourself in a language and speaking it from day one. He explains how learning a language builds persistence and confidence and can be a vehicle for growing many other skills, and how multilingual team members can facilitate so much more than just content creation in multiple languages. We also discuss strategies for leveraging AI as a first-draft tool and using our human skills for quality assurance, and how the ease of AI may lead to increased access through more content in more languages, but also may present security concerns.
