  • Summary

  • We talk about all things related to quality teaching in higher education classes by engaging in Pedagogically-Oriented Discourse (POD). A particular focus is given to providing teaching-based vocabulary, theory, and strategies in simple terms so instructors can consider new ways of connecting students to your content and so you can describe and justify these actions in your promotion and tenure packets.

Hear how they have embraced opportunities within academia, and specifically programs at UNK, to connect with students, improve their teaching, have an impact on the community, and also advance scholarship in their fields.
