Event Details

  • Date:

Dr. Rebecca L. Salois (Baruch College) of the Black and Latino Studies and English Departments will lead a workshop designed to help faculty integrate the use of podcasts as a tool for both input and output in student learning. She will discuss how she has incorporated listening to podcasts (including her own podcast, Why Do We Read This?) into her own classroom and the ways in which she asks students to actively engage with these podcasts through low-stakes assignments. Participants will be given time in breakout rooms to discuss how they might include podcasts in their own curriculum.
