Jessamyn Neuhaus shares about her book, SNAFU Edu: Teaching and Learning When Things Go Wrong in the College Classroom, on episode 577 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


Human beings make mistakes. We make mistakes as part of learning. We make mistakes just being in the world.
-Jessamyn Neuhaus

Academia generally attracts people with perfectionist tendencies.
-Jessamyn Neuhaus

Sometimes there is no positive outcome when something goes wrong. Sometimes things just get messed up because people are human.
-Jessamyn Neuhaus

Inadvertently we have a subtext that teaching is somehow perfectible. Teaching and learning will never ever be perfectible.
-Jessamyn Neuhaus

Emily M. Bender & Alex Hanna share about their book, The AI Con: How to Fight Big Tech’s Hype and Create the Future We Want on episode 576 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


What's going on with the phrase artificial intelligence is not that it means something else than what we're using it to mean, it's that it doesn't have a proper referent in the world.
-Emily M. Bender

There's a much broader range of people who can have opinions on AI.
-Alex Hanna

The boosters say AI is a thing. It's inevitable, it's imminent, it's going to be super powerful, and it's going to solve all of our problems. And the doomers say AI is a thing, it's inevitable, it's imminent, it's going to be super powerful, and it's going to kill us all. And you can see that there's actually not a lot of daylight between those two positions, despite the discourse of saying these are two opposite ends of a spectrum.
-Emily M. Bender

Teachers' working conditions are students' learning conditions.
-Alex Hannay

Rolin Moe shares about rebuilding trust in the value of education (among other things) on episode 575 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


I never again had a static lesson plan. I was always very fluid in whatever I was going to be doing. I knew where I wanted to get, but the road could go in all sorts of different directions.
- Rolin Moe

Learning is a continuous activity in all sorts of areas and all sorts of places.
- Rolin Moe

Education is the process of helping people find things that they don't yet know they love.
- Rolin Moe

Alex Edmans shares about his book, May Contain Lies: How Stories, Statistics, and Studies Exploit Our Biases and What We Can Do About It on episode 574 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


We think a lie is basically the opposite of truth. So something is a lie if you can disprove it factually.
-Alex Edmans

What I focus on in my book is a more subtle form of a lie where something could be 100% accurate, but the inferences that we draw from them might be misleading.
-Alex Edmans

It's not that they're bad people, it's that they're people, they're humans. And if we're a person, we have biases.
-Alex Edmans

What I'm trying to highlight is the importance of being discerning. We want to have healthy skepticism, but we want to have the same healthy skepticism to something that we do like as something that we don't.
-Alex Edmans

Tolu Noah shares about her new book, Designing and Facilitating Workshops with Intentionality, on episode 573 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


Whenever I'm planning a learning experience, I start by identifying a clear goal for the experience.
-Tolu Noah

I don't think there's necessarily one right way to approach planning.
-Tolu Noah

A really important aspect of facilitation is that yes, you have a plan, but you also need to be flexible with that plan and be willing to take a rest stop or a detour if needed.
-Tolu Noah

Timing is probably one of the most important aspects of facilitation.

Leon Furze shares about myths and metaphors in the age of generative AI on episode 572 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


In higher education there is a need to temper the resistance and refusal of the technology with the understanding that students are using it anyway.
-Leon Furze

We can take a a personal moral stance, but if we have a responsibility to teach students, then we have a responsibility to engage with the technology on some level. In order to do that, we need to be using it and and experimenting with it because otherwise, we're relying on third party information, conjecture, and opinions rather than direct experience.
-Leon Furze

My use of the technology has really shifted over the last few years the more I think about it as a technology and not as a vehicle for language.
-Leon Furze

Let the English teachers who love English, teach English. Let the mathematics teachers who love math, teach math. Let the science teachers teach science. And where appropriate, bring these technologies in.
-Leon Furze

Jackie Shay Shares about overcoming imposter syndrome through joyful curiosity on episode 571 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


Sometimes I get in my head about imposter syndrome about being joyful.
-Jackie Shay

Why can't we recognize that these different types of intelligences have just as much value as intellectual intelligence?
-Jackie Shay

It's about supporting the learning by doing meaningful, challenging work that promotes growth, that allows us to find joy in the discomfort that comes from the vulnerability of pushing your mind to its boundaries and beyond.
-Jackie Shay

Laura Gibbs shares how to get started with interactive storytelling in any discipline on episode 570 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


I think what happens with a lot of people's efforts to tell stories is that they're staring at a blank page or a blank screen, and they just feel lost in it because they don't have a form that they're filling up.
-Laura Gibbss

Everybody was thriving with these hundred word stories.
-Laura Gibbss

Meaninglessness in education won't work. Education has to be meaningful, personally meaningful.

Mike Perkins and Jasper Roe share a practical framework for ethical AI integration in assessment on episode 569 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


We wanted to be flexible and have some opportunities for students and faculty to really have open conversations about how AI might be suitably used given the individual circumstances and the cultural context.
-Mike Perkins

One of the things that is happening that we can't deny is that the rate of hallucinations is going down. The capabilities are getting better and better.
-Jasper Roe

Criticality and pessimism aren't the same thing, especially when it comes to GenAI models.

Tricia Bertram Gallant and David Rettinger discuss The Opposite of Cheating: Teaching for Integrity in the Age of AI on episode 568 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


It is true that people cheat, and that's the reason we have rules in the first place in our lives.
-David Rettinger

There are always going to be social, personal, and individual pressures on us that cause us to do things that either we didn't realize were wrong, or that we perfectly well know that are wrong, but that in that moment seem like a reasonable trade off to our behavior.
-David Rettinger

Take care of yourself first, whatever that looks like. You're never going to help somebody else if you're not on firm ground yourself.
-David Rettinger

You can treat people with dignity and respect even as you’re calling out their mistake. You can challenge them while being respectful.
-Tricia Bertram Gallant

It is important for us to remember to give grace to ourselves.
-Tricia Bertram Gallant

Quotes from the episode


As an instructor, there are multiple streams that you're having to pay attention to and you're switching between each one.
-Therese Huston

The research shows that listening to music that moves you will increase dopamine in your ventral striatum, so you feel a sense of reward.
-Therese Huston

Visualizing the process actually increases productivity. The neuroscience shows that you see five times more brain areas activated when you picture the process than when you picture a glorious outcome.
-Therese Huston

If you do just a 5 minute meditation right before you need to recall something, you can get up to a 75% improvement in your recall.

John Warner shares about his latest book, More Than Words: How to Think About Writing in the Age of AI on episode 564 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


If we treat the output of large language models as writing, as opposed to syntax generation, which is how I characterize it, then we're allowing the meaning of writing and the experience of writing to be degraded for humans.
-John Warner

Clearly, this is not feedback that is unique to human beings and unique to how we read.
-John Warner

There is no pivot for humanity. We're going to be humans whether we like it or not, and we are going to live our life through a series of experiences which convey some manner of meaning to ourselves. We still have to live. We still have to have a day to day experience of the world. We still have to have access to our own minds. We still have to relate to other people. This is the stuff of being human.
-John Warner

Every human is a unique intelligence. Developing a unique intelligence is a work of teaching and learning. And honoring that is the highest calling of a teacher.
-John Warner

Quotes from the episode

-Dr. Sunita Sah

Defiance is a skill that's available and necessary for all of us to use.
-Dr. Sunita Sah

For many of us, the distance between who we think we are and what we actually do is enormous.

Jesús Campos shares his story as an undocumented undergrad/grad student and ways to support others in their educational pursuits on episode 562 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


There is some guilt students have because they feel like they’re not really pulling their weight, or they’re sort of a burden because they’re not producing an income.
-Jesús Campos

Look at scholarships that are open to nonresidents. They're out there.
-Jesús Campos

It’s very important not to put yourself and your own experiences in your student’s shoes. Every student is unique and going through something entirely different.
-Jesús Campos

Individuals from different countries go through different processes. It is not a one size fits all.
-Jesús Campos

Students are each special and unique, and it is important we get to know them as such.

Quotes from the episode

I think that there is still a sense of surprise when a request is made for some kind of modification.
-Stephanie Cawthon

This idea that accommodations and accessibility is coming at some cost to the abled is a false pretense.
-Stephanie Cawthon

If you receive a whole bunch of feedback and you can't do anything about it, that just makes you feel bad.

Simon Cullen and Nicholas DiBella discuss how to equip students to dialog across differences using an AI Guide they’ve created on episode 560 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


Most of my students have not heard cogent arguments on the other side of whatever they whatever their own position is because they've been so siloed.
-Simon Cullen

In every one of these classes the point is to try and confront students with the strongest arguments I can find, ideally for the thing they don't believe.
-Simon Cullen

The first thing they hear from me is if you wish to avoid the risk of being offended, then you should probably not be taking this class.
-Simon Cullen

In philosophy, we always embrace disagreement.
-Nicholas DiBella

We have designed the guide is to be as neutral as possible.
-Nicholas DiBella

Lauren Barbeau + Claudia Cornejo Happel discuss how to cultivate critical teaching behaviors on episode 559 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode


Being a good teacher or a good researcher is not something you're born with. It's something you learn. It's something you can get better at.
-Lauren Barbeau

Teaching doesn't fall into nice, neat color coded boxes. We need something that represents the complexity and the messiness and the way that behaviors overlap and might fall into more than one category.
-Lauren Barbeau

If we can't reflect on our teaching, we can't identify our strengths to start leveraging them, to start working on them.
-Lauren Barbeau

If you're looking for an entry point into critical teaching behaviors, start by reflecting on your teaching and take a look at the materials we've provided to help you do that.
-Lauren Barbeau

Be kind to yourself because some semesters are harder than others.
-Lauren Barbeau

It all comes back to caring about students, being transparent about what we're doing in the classroom, explaining our purpose, and involving them in the conversation that is the learning together in the classroom.
-Claudia Cornejo Happel

While there's no one thing that is more difficult than another, it really helps us to find a behavior that resonates with us and that we can use as a lens to think about our teaching more holistically.
-Claudia Cornejo Happel

Quotes from the episode


I think a lot of us kinda simmer in this little mindset of, everybody else can do this and I can't.
-Michelle Miller

We’ve all heard the old saying it’s the sweetest sound that anybody ever hears their own name. It elevates the conversation differently to be able to use names.
-Michelle Miller

The test isn't on how well you can recognize the name. The test is on how well you can say the names. That's what you need need to practice doing.
-Michelle Miller
