Check out my highlights on what I learned from Gary Roloff from Fisheries & Wildlife:

𝟏 critical thinking, synthesis of ideas & information, acquisition of contextual knowledge, and informed judgment results in empowered, confident decision making in students

✌🏽 teaching philosophies change over time. focusing on contextual knowledge teaches “clear answers” which is not the same as making informed arguments and decisions using that knowledge

💡connecting students to local and agency partners is a highlight for students & builds professional networks

🌪challenges: "if we fail to recognize and adjust our content and delivery to appeal to diverse learning styles we are not being fair"

🔥hot take: changing from testing structures📝 to oral exams🎤 provides an opportunity for students to demonstrate knowledge and explain answers. More time consuming, but the payoff is worth it

Multiple stories and sentiments were generously shared by 4/4 Beyond Buzzwords: Ungrading workshop participants (thank you for your vulnerability and candor) about the varied ways in which students react to, and make assumption / inferences about their instructors, after the employment of ungrading and ungrading-inspired practices.

This article (linked below) "Academe Has a Lot to Learn About How Inclusive Teaching Affects Instructors" By Chavella Pittman and Thomas J. Tobin in The Chronicle of Higher Education on FEBRUARY 7, 2022 will likely be of interest to you. Starting out by recognizing / acknowledging the power held by some identities (core, chosen, and given) but not by others, complicates the idea that all educators have the same "power and authority" to give up/share to increase learners' sense of ownership and agency in the classroom. ""What if you have neither the institutional authority (a full-time or tenure-track job) nor the dominant-culture identity (by virtue of your race, gender, and/or ability) that usually go hand in hand with being treated as a respected, powerful presence in the college classroom?... In urging faculty members to adopt inclusive teaching practices, we need to start asking if they actually can — and at what cost, " say Pittman and Tobin.

Take-aways shared in this piece include:
1. Understand that your classroom choices may unintentionally affect or undercut a colleague
2. Discuss in your department the issue of bias in students' rating of teaching
3. Respect the variability among your colleagues, as well as among your students
4. Find trained help

"Share your stories, experiences, and thought processes as you negotiate your instructor role in the classroom..." iteach.msu.edu is one space where we can continue to help "normalize the conversation about instructor identity and status as a necessary element in the adoption of inclusive design and teaching practices".

Considering the first experience of multilingual students -- specifically challenges and different approaches to solutions -- Lu & Horner called for a translingual/multilingual approach, which they claim expresses a “willingness to explore with students what they care to advance about people, language and cultures in which they are identified and may identify, and how and why and when to do it” (p. 600).
