Podcast notes

Teaching classes repeatedly

Advantage of knowing where students typically get stuck

Dr. Chrissy Spencer spoke about this when describing her broken-up cases in episode 25, when she just “happens” to have a slide that clarifies a student’s question

Reinforcing a difficult concept

Advertising response function in my Principles of Marketing class

  • Not all  understand the idea of the law of diminishing returns by the time they get to the course
  • Would be the ideal situation for an interactive online module something like the scenario manager in Excel (under data, what-if, scenario manager)
  • Did the typical think-pair-share
  • Two truths and a tie exercise

Using the Attendance2 app to facilitate the random calling on of students

Applying learning to something students know well

Lessons in PR from our university

Standard 2.2 from accreditor (whole must be greater than the parts)

Going outside

Self assessment on theory X and theory Y

  • Steps to avoid cheating on exams
  • Latecomers need to call to be marked present for the day

What things do you see that I do that are theory Y

  • Self-directed learning during the week
  • Bulls and bears game
  • PollEverywhere quizzes via cell phones in class

No anonymity any longer

However, I was then able to give them the opportunity to indicate how they would like to be treated as an employee

Recommendation

Remind app – now has text chat, but with office hours
