Welcome to week 4! This is the last week of #DigPINS, though we hope, not our last week learning together. Everything you read below are just my thoughts on the topics / questions that were brought up, so I wrote this as a blog post …
Assessment and Networks from a Novice Perspective
Full disclosure: I have not had any formal education in pedagogy. I taught one hybrid college course in the fall semester of 2020 three months (and two weeks) after graduating from a master’s program that did not focus on pedagogy. (A Master’s in Theological Studies …
Week 1: Modality and Public Identity
Bonnie Stewart’s “In Praise of Living in Public” was the first and most impactful thing I read for this week’s topic. I enjoyed her offhand style and didn’t feel intimidated by her vast depth and breadth of knowledge, an ocean compared to my kiddie pool. …
