Martha Burtis shares about agency, learning, and purpose on episode 306 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Quotes from the episode
Make space for people to find their agency.
There is so much trauma among our students that we don’t realize.
We need to rethink the opportunities we give students to demonstrate what they know.
All of us can probably tell stories of that teach we had who changes our life.
