Description:

On today’s episode, I talk with Sean Michael Morris about what the best digital teachers do.

Digital Teachers

Sean Michael Morris,
Digital Teacher and Pedagogue

Sean is a digital teacher and pedagogue, with experience especially in networked learning, MOOCs, digital composition and publishing, collaboration, and editing. He’s been working in digital teaching and learning for 15 years. His work as a pioneer in the field of Critical Digital Pedagogy is founded in the philosophy of Paulo Freire, and finds contemporary analogues in the work of Howard Rheingold, Cathy N. Davidson, Dave Cormier, and Jesse Stommel. He is committed to engaging audiences in critical inspection of digital technologies, and to turning a social justice lens upon education.

Quotes

There are no principles that I’m aware of in instructional design that allow for the human to creep in; it’s very mechanistic.
–Sean Michael Morris

I believe that teaching isn’t method; teaching is intuitive.
–Sean Michael Morris

Every time we step into a classroom or design a new course … we have to step back and realize we don’t know anything, that each time it is new.
–Sean Michael Morris

I approach everything by asking, “What is it that you’re wanting to get out of this?” and, “What is it that you want your students to get from this?”
–Sean Michael Morris
