    Four Common Arguments Against DEI and How to Dismantle Them
    Jul 3 2024
    Amira Barger shares four common arguments against DEI and how to dismantle them on episode 525 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode Many people who are at the margins often know from lived experience that the playing field is not level, and that there are biases that leaders and individuals across any and every institution have to mitigate. -Amira Barger Many people tend to view the work of diversity, equity, and inclusion as this sort of a 0 sum game. That idea of we're lifting someone else up means you have to push or bring someone else down. And that's not at all what we're trying to do this work. -Amira Barger It really is about leveling the playing field. It's not about taking things away, but it's about understanding. -Amira Barger What are you creating so that others can see themselves represented in the spaces they're in with you? -Amira Barger I try to very intentionally surround myself with people who believe and think differently than I do so that I can understand where they are coming from. -Amira Barger Resources 4 Common Arguments Against DEI and How to Dismantle Them, by Amira Barger To Overcome Resistance to DEI, Understand What’s Driving It, by Eric Shuman, Eric Knowles, and Amit Goldenberg The Curb-Cut Effect How AI is Transforming DEI - and What Leaders Should Keep in Mind, by Amira Barger Navel Gazing: John Dickerson’s Notebooks: Sending Our Son to College Navel Gazing: John Dickerson’s Notebooks: Remembering George and Defending the Morning Navel Gazing: John Dickerson’s Notebooks: The Sneaky Pitfalls of the To-Do List The Wake Up: Closing the Gap Between Good Intentions and Real Change, by Michelle Mijung Kim The Moth Storytelling Podcast

    Jun 20 2024
    Judith Dutill talks about communication literacy in the age of AI on episode 523 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode In the college classroom, we don't often emphasize that type of communication as a skill that's worth teaching, talking about, assessing, and we focus instead on more formal types of communication. -Judith Dutill Communication is a very subjective thing, but I think there is a common definition that we could all agree on that effective communication is creating meaning and being understood. -Judith Dutill As we develop in higher education, many of us believe in multiple literacies. -Judith Dutill If your discipline involves speaking and listening, communication is at the center of it. -Judith Dutill Resources National Communication Association Communication Learning Outcomes Watergate Karen Costa Emergent Strategy, by adriene maree brown Take an improv class

Quotes from the episode We need to provide opportunities for people to find things hard, to persevere, and to see if they come out the other side. -Leon Furze For me, brainstorming, idea generation, drafting, all of that is far more important than the finished product itself. -Leon Furze If we're going to accuse students of cheating and then allow professors or or educators to use the technology for assessments, that's hypocritical, and probably quite condescending. -Leon Furze Resources The Myth of the AI First Draft, by Leon Furze Google NotebookLM Margaret Atwood Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, by David Epstein Connor Grennan describes the power of generalists on LinkedIn video Practical AI Strategies - 20% off course use code tihe2024 Good ideas: When to use GenAI for brainstorming, by Leon Furze
