Episode 63!

Recorded at the end of October, this episode reflects on how the semester is going, especially given a recent exchange with my manager.

In brief, two suggestions:

  1. Plays games with the students
  2. Move the students to the front of the classroom.

All good in theory, but this is a university class of 40 students... for academic writing.

This follows a comment by one of my students that I'm one of only teachers that walks around the classroom, the rest of their teachers (professors) just stand at the front and talk from a PPT.

This got me thinking: does all education have to be gamified? And is the university language class any different from other classes?
