    Class Adjourned: The Importance of Ending Well

    We always talk about the beginning of the course and setting the tone, but what about the end of the course? How can you make your course memorable? How can you make your end-of-course project meaningful? Today, we’ll look at it from multiple perspectives. First, we’ll look inward and outward and ask ourselves pertinent closing questions. Next, we’ll look at how an end-of-semester service learning project can make students feel empowered and feel as if the class work they are doing is meaningful. Last, I’ll read an article from Maryellen Weimer about a learning moment, and how it impacted her students from the first day until the last day. You may think that the first day is the most important day, but how students feel walking out of your classroom on the last day is just as important.

    A Quest for Knowledge: Making Learning Irresistible through Gamification Strategies

    In this episode, we dive into the power of gamification in education, exploring how it can transform student engagement and motivation. We start by examining the role of failure as a motivating tool within gamified learning, proposing that challenges and setbacks can be reconfigured as stepping stones toward success. We also talk about strategies, such as playful openers, game-infused instruction, and storified assessments, to spark interest and sustain engagement among students, especially reluctant learners. Lastly, we'll delve into the importance of leveraging pop culture to create memorable learning experiences, from incorporating familiar characters (like Harry Potter) into case studies to embedding entire courses with engaging, fictional scenarios. So, how can you start gamifying your courses? Game on! Recommended Resources: How Can I Use Simple Gamification Strategies to Engage My Students?How Can I Spark and Sustain Engagement in Reluctant Learners?How Can I Bring Pop to My Classroom with Pop Culture?This episode is sponsored by The Teaching Professor, a source of inspiration for more than 10,000 educators at universities and colleges worldwide.

    Teaching Tomorrow: Unleashing the Synergy Between Humans and Robots

    In this episode, we dive into the rapidly evolving landscape of generative AI tools in education. Dr. Jayne Lammers emphasizes the importance of collaborative exploration, urging teachers and colleagues to embark on a collective learning journey together. We also discuss specific AI tools such as Claude, Bing, Bard, TeachAI, Magic School, and more, and how educators can use these tools for brainstorming sessions, language translation, and lesson planning.  “We are all learning how to use these tools together. And I think that will go a long way to not keeping it as something we need to hide or feel like we’re cheating with but using it as a tool to make the things we don’t like to do or that are hard to do, easier. And this gives us the energy and space to be more creative and to do the things that humans are best at.” Mentioned resources: ChatGPTClaude.aiBingGoogle BardMagic SchoolTeach AIMagic Studio (Canva)Khan Academy Commonsense EducationOur Generative AI in Education Experiments: Lessons Learned | Edmentum Other recommended resources: How You Can Use AI to Maximize Time ManagementHow Can I Use Generative AI to Assess Student Understanding?Educators Reflect on Teaching and Learning in the Era of Generative AIHow Can I Use AI to Draft Course Materials?How Can I Use AI as a Student Writing and Editing Coach?How Can I Use AI to Create Multimedia Teaching Materials?
