Triumphs and failures – Day 1

Bonni Stachowiak shares about the triumphs and failures in her first day of teaching this semester.

• Thanks for the encouragement on the Terrors of Teaching episode #059
• Mac Power Users episode on emergency preparedness
• Content warnings
• Rick rolls
• You are an idiot

• Race is on my mind
• Stephen Brookfield – The Skillful Teacher – micro-agressions
• Peter Newbury on episode #053

• Planbook

• Mostly kept pace between three sections of the same class
• Kept my stuff together – cords, etc. Grid it system worked like a champ
• Experience what my teaching is like, versus me talking about it (while still explaining while we go)
• Continually working on just-in-time learning/demonstrations, when possible (tapes, SnagIt)
