“Nine-tenths of education is encouragement.”

The best teaching happens when we are fully present. This also happens to be the best way to get the students to be fully present.

Excited to welcome James Lang to UA today! His work has profoundly shaped how so many of us think about teaching and learning. Looking forward to the wisdom—and the sparks—that come from gathering around ideas that matter.

Really neat thing about launching a new teaching center is all of the fabulous people you get to meet and work with. Actually, that's probably just a perk of working in higher education generally.

New publication: "Interview with Steve McCarty" [on his professorial accomplishments in Japan].
The College and University Educators research group of the Japan Association for Language Teaching has honored me with their second annual Veteran Teacher Voices interview on my teaching career in Japan. I critique the foreign language teaching profession, discuss future trends of increasing foreigners in Japan, the need for English, and long-term effects of AI on language acquisition.
I believe educationalists will find this article interesting: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/386424805

a new way I've been using #GenAI of late is to make FAQs based upon transcripts from workshops & trainings that I've recently run...not new, but this video walks you through how:

Found flipcam footage of a talk I gave at the HBCU 2010 Faculty Development Network conference, discussing how Plato's dialogues, when used well, furnish opportunities to foster reading, writing, & critical thinking skills. Edited it, and here's the video

📣 Do you use #canvas 📣
I would love to get your thoughts on a short 3-question survey of
1️⃣ what you love
2️⃣ what you wish Canvas did differently
3️⃣ what's your best tip for using Canvas
Trying to put together a “here’s all the GREAT things Canvas does” from the faculty perspective - balanced with “here’s what annoys the heck out of me” perspective. 🙂
Survey in the linked post - thank you!

based on the number of requests I'm getting to talk, run workshops, & plan longer engagement with #GenerativeAI, institutions are definitely scrambling--the challenge is that many of these are one-offs & what's needed is more strategic and ongoing...

CW: Thoughts from Teaching Observations
Are your lecture slides crammed with information? Are they consecutive text?
Maybe with extensive notes underneath the slides?"But there is so much stuff to cover!"
Could these slides be a session handbook?
What is the purpose of the lecture? Reading information out loud? Or something else?#lecture #teaching #Didaktik #TeachingProvocation #AcademicLife #HigherEd #Faculty #FacultyDevelopment #AcademicDevelopment

We'd get more folks #teaching in #highered open to rubrics if we just said "share the criteria you'll assess students on. I think there are two reasons why:
1.Building out a traditional grid rubric is a lot of groundwork. A list of criteria and their relative weights is a smaller lift and better than nothing!
2. We're fighting against an unspoken bias against things done in K-12 ed. ::eye roll::
Thoughts about what we'd lose with this move?
