Our Spring Conference on teaching and learning was focused on the guiding philosophy of our Teaching Center: Engaging and Equitable Education for All. This philosophy not only guides our center's educational development and pedagogical strategies but also reflects our commitment to creating learning environments where every student feels valued and empowered. Indeed, it's at the core of MSU’s mission to ensure that all students can succeed, and the work educators do is central in the pursuit of that mission.

The conference was a day not just to celebrate successes in the classroom, but also to offer sincere thanks for the work Spartan educators do to make MSU a place of deep and meaningful learning. Educators are well aware of the powerful role gratitude plays in higher ed. Gratitude is not just about saying 'thank you.' It is about acknowledging the hard work and passion of everyone involved in the educational endeavor—recognizing that each contribution, no matter how small it might seem, enriches our students’ collective experience and understanding.

I’ve seen that enrichment play out in my own family over the past four years. Just last weekend my son graduated from James Madison College. His growth as a writer, a thinker, a critic, and a leader has been remarkable to watch. His college experience was defined by all the things that make MSU so great – football games, RSOs, dorm food, parking tickets, an unforgettable study abroad experience, wicked winter walks between Wells Hall and Case. But ask him today what stood out the most and he’d without question say it was in the classroom where he changed the most. His experience is typical of so many of the 6,200 students that walked across stages all last weekend. They leave here more prepared to thrive and lead because of what MSU’s educators gave them day in and day out in class. And it’s because of those thousands of changed lives that it’s so important to pause on occasion to thank educators.

CTLI’s “Thank an Educator” initiative, which launched 2018, exemplifies the ethos of gratitude that I hope to elevate in the Teaching Center. Since it's inception over 900 educators have received notes of gratitude for the excellent work they do. They all are testaments to the varied ways in which education can impact the lives of the members of the Spartan community. I encourage you to click the Thank and Educator link to the left or visit https://iteach.msu.edu/home/thank_an_educator so you can thank an educator yourself!

At the Teaching Center we celebrate and recognize the diverse array of educators across roles on our campus; each one plays a crucial role in shaping the vibrant educational ecosystem at MSU. At CTLI, our definition of educator is broad and inclusive. We believe that everyone here contributes to our teaching and learning mission. From the lab supervisor engaging with students in hands-on research to the campus tour guide sharing the Spartan spirit with prospective students to the veteran professor delivering that inspiring lecture, you are all educators in the fullest sense. The interactions educators foster and the knowledge they share underscore our “Spartans Will” ethos—demonstrating determination, resilience, and a commitment to excellence.

Hello, current and future users of Microsoft's Power Automate. I made this group so we can share learn more and share our knowledge and skills. I made my first flow about five years ago. It was very simple and I still needed help, despite the fact that Microsoft bills PA as a 'Low-code, No-Code' solution. Only recently have I begun using PA more earnestly. I still need help.

MSU is a big place
Student success is number one-
teaching and learning
we must prioritize!

Educators are rock stars,
helping with this mission,
They need a place to share their work, and connect with their colleagues!

Share and grow, share and grow
Share, connect, and grow!
O' how great to have a site, for us to do all three!

Wishing you peaceful holidays and a happy new year from #iteachmsu!

Did you know that when MSU went remote due to the Covid19 pandemic, past face-to-face Teaching Toolkit Tailgate (TTT) “tools” (AKA content) were shared in a #iteachmsu group?

Finally getting around to doing something here on iteachmsu and thought I'd share a brief whiteboard animation that I put together in May-June of this year. I use these as part of my weekly online modules for the various (now asynchronous online) IAH courses I teach. Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHudDcUaxB0
