About this listen
In this bonus episode, I join my life-long pal and fellow professor Anthony Michael D'Agostino in a hilarious, honest, and passionate conversation about what it's like to teach college students these days. We talk about the importance of meeting students where they're at by speaking directly to their greatest hopes, fears, and desires, while pushing them to questions their most tightly held assumptions about the world. And we also discuss the major challenges that attend teaching today, from the decreasing literacy and comprehension levels of students, to the influence of AI on independent thinking, to the decrease in university budgets and classroom resources. Despite the gravity of these topics, most of this episode features us laughing about the most playful, exuberant and just plain funny aspects of teaching at the university level.
