Lecture Abstract:
“In this talk, I offer my reflections on 30 years of teaching – and learning – at the college level. The talk will touch on teaching modes, student behaviors, technologies and/of teaching, changes good, bad, and proposed, and where they come from, and my take on how to work with students to enhance their learning. I will also offer observations and a critique on the general direction of higher education in the nation, state, and institution. Lastly, I will urge faculty members to increase their influence through service and advocacy.”
