  • Great teaching and learning pod

    Full of great practical ideas for improving your teaching- especially post secondary education.

    I’m new to the podcast- 50 episodes in, and going in order. I hope they also talk more about research and coping with tenure track years.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Revisiting A Curated AI Framework
Q: Could you provide listeners with an overview of the course and how the AI activities were structured?
The AI tutor was implemented in two health science courses, HS 300 and a fitness wellness class, using a learning file that defined topics and questions. The bot engaged students in a Socratic dialogue, helping them reach the core knowledge before class and producing a 'proof of learning' that was handed in ahead of the first day of class.
All Day TA
Q: Does All Day TA track student progress and provide reports to the instructor, or is it just used by the students themselves?
Yes, it provides usage data and, with permissions, records for assessment insights while keeping student identities confidential; instructors can see what students are asking and where they struggle to tailor their lectures and materials.
UDL at Scale
Q: How can institutions ensure the change persists after leadership turnover?
By enshrining UDL in policy, mission, and onboarding, and by distributing accountability and support across the culture, including the long-serving staff who carry institutional memory.
UDL at Scale
Q: What incentive structures help faculty stay aligned with UDL?
Tobin suggests embedding UDL into job descriptions and performance evaluations, providing early training, and offering opportunities to practice without immediate penalties, all while aiming to make UDL a routine part of work rather than an extra task.
UDL at Scale
Q: Have any institutions committed to a UDL-at-scale approach?
Yes, Tobin notes there have been several, with Atlantic Technological University highlighted as a notable example of a campus implementing UDL across multiple units, aided by leadership commitment and a shift toward supportive, rather than mandating, practices.
