Show Notes 2025 What do you really learn in acute care—and what does it feel like to use what you've learned in the classroom? In this episode, we speak with Mika Mendoza, a recent UIC DPT graduate, who reflects on the clinical rotation that changed her perspective on physical therapy. From managing a complex discharge for a newly blind patient to navigating transplant floors and collaborating with interprofessional teams, Mika shares powerful insights on growth, uncertainty, and finding purpose in acute care. This episode also marks the debut of our new co-host, Dr. Nicole Neveau, PT, DPT, who brings her experience as a CI and clinical leader into the conversation. Together, she and Leo explore mentorship, first-hand learning, and why exposure to acute care should be standard in DPT education. Whether you're a student, educator, or practicing clinician—this conversation will resonate.

It's not just walking and it's not just standing.” 19:33 “ …not all things were as straightforward as we had learned it in didactic.” 28:45 “ I feel like having students go into an acute care clinical rotation I think it's just so important because you will never know. If you don't try it, right? …Uou miss a hundred percent of the shots that you don't take. And I think it's the same with acute care, especially because there are so many things that get debunked when you're in an acute care clinical rotation.” Rapid Responses: What kind of shoes do you wear in acute care? “Not White Ones” You know you work in acute care when… “ When you try to swipe your badge to get into your house” Links: https://www.aptaacutecare.org/page/2026Elections Connect with our host and the podcast!

In this episode Gudrun speaks with Nadja Klein and Moussa Kassem Sbeyti who work at the Scientific Computing Center (SCC) at KIT in Karlsruhe. Since August 2024, Nadja has been professor at KIT leading the research group Methods for Big Data (MBD) there. She is an Emmy Noether Research Group Leader, and a member of AcademiaNet, and Die Junge Akademie, among others. In 2025, Nadja was awarded the Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies (COPSS) Emerging Leader Award (ELA). The COPSS ELA recognizes early career statistical scientists who show evidence of and potential for leadership and who will help shape and strengthen the field. She finished her doctoral studies in Mathematics at the Universität Göttingen before conducting a postdoc at the University of Melbourne as a Feodor-Lynen fellow by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Afterwards she was a Professor for Statistics and Data Science at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin before joining KIT. Moussa joined Nadja's lab as an associated member in 2023 and later as a postdoctoral researcher in 2024. He pursued a PhD at the TU Berlin while working as an AI Research Scientist at the Continental AI Lab in Berlin. His research primarily focuses on deep learning, developing uncertainty-based automated labeling methods for 2D object detection in autonomous driving. Prior to this, Moussa earned his M.Sc. in Mechatronics Engineering from the TU Darmstadt in 2021. The research of Nadja and Moussa is at the intersection of statistics and machine learning. In Nadja's MBD Lab the research spans theoretical analysis, method development and real-world applications. One of their key focuses is Bayesian methods, which allow to incorporate prior knowledge, quantify uncertainties, and bring insights to the “black boxes” of machine learning. By fusing the precision and reliability of Bayesian statistics with the adaptability of machine and deep learning, these methods aim to leverage the best of both worlds. The KIT offers a strong research environment, making it an ideal place to continue their work. They bring new expertise that can be leveraged in various applications and on the other hand Helmholtz offers a great platform in that respect to explore new application areas. For example Moussa decided to join the group at KIT as part of the Helmholtz Pilot Program Core-Informatics at KIT (KiKIT), which is an initiative focused on advancing fundamental research in informatics within the Helmholtz Association. Vision models typically depend on large volumes of labeled data, but collecting and labeling this data is both expensive and prone to errors. During his PhD, his research centered on data-efficient learning using uncertainty-based automated labeling techniques. That means estimating and using the uncertainty of models to select the helpful data samples to train the models to label the rest themselves. Now, within KiKIT, his work has evolved to include knowledge-based approaches in multi-task models, eg. detection and depth estimation — with the broader goal of enabling the development and deployment of reliable, accurate vision systems in real-world applications. Statistics and data science are fascinating fields, offering a wide variety of methods and applications that constantly lead to new insights. Within this domain, Bayesian methods are especially compelling, as they enable the quantification of uncertainty and the incorporation of prior knowledge. These capabilities contribute to making machine learning models more data-efficient, interpretable, and robust, which are essential qualities in safety-critical domains such as autonomous driving and personalized medicine. Nadja is also enthusiastic about the interdisciplinarity of the subject — repeatedly changing the focus from mathematics to economics to statistics to computer science. The combination of theoretical fundamentals and practical applications makes statistics an agile and important field of research in data science. From a deep learning perspective, the focus is on making models both more efficient and more reliable when dealing with large-scale data and complex dependencies. One way to do this is by reducing the need for extensive labeled data. They also work on developing self-aware models that can recognize when they're unsure and even reject their own predictions when necessary. Additionally, they explore model pruning techniques to improve computational efficiency, and specialize in Bayesian deep learning, allowing machine learning models to better handle uncertainty and complex dependencies. Beyond the methods themselves, they also contribute by publishing datasets that help push the development of next-generation, state-of-the-art models. The learning methods are applied across different domains such as object detection, depth estimation, semantic segmentation, and trajectory prediction — especially in the context of autonomous driving and agricultural applications. As deep learning technologies continue to evolve, they're also expanding into new application areas such as medical imaging. Unlike traditional deep learning, Bayesian deep learning provides uncertainty estimates alongside predictions, allowing for more principled decision-making and reducing catastrophic failures in safety-critical application. It has had a growing impact in several real-world domains where uncertainty really matters. Bayesian learning incorporates prior knowledge and updates beliefs as new data comes in, rather than relying purely on data-driven optimization. In healthcare, for example, Bayesian models help quantify uncertainty in medical diagnoses, which supports more risk-aware treatment decisions and can ultimately lead to better patient outcomes. In autonomous vehicles, Bayesian models play a key role in improving safety. By recognizing when the system is uncertain, they help capture edge cases more effectively, reduce false positives and negatives in object detection, and navigate complex, dynamic environments — like bad weather or unexpected road conditions — more reliably. In finance, Bayesian deep learning enhances both risk assessment and fraud detection by allowing the system to assess how confident it is in its predictions. That added layer of information supports more informed decision-making and helps reduce costly errors. Across all these areas, the key advantage is the ability to move beyond just accuracy and incorporate trust and reliability into AI systems. Bayesian methods are traditionally more expensive, but modern approximations (e.g., variational inference or last layer inference) make them feasible. Computational costs depend on the problem — sometimes Bayesian models require fewer data points to achieve better performance. The trade-off is between interpretability and computational efficiency, but hardware improvements are helping bridge this gap. Their research on uncertainty-based automated labeling is designed to make models not just safer and more reliable, but also more efficient. By reducing the need for extensive manual labeling, one improves the overall quality of the dataset while cutting down on human effort and potential labeling errors. Importantly, by selecting informative samples, the model learns from better data — which means it can reach higher performance with fewer training examples. This leads to faster training and better generalization without sacrificing accuracy. They also focus on developing lightweight uncertainty estimation techniques that are computationally efficient, so these benefits don't come with heavy resource demands. In short, this approach helps build models that are more robust, more adaptive to new data, and significantly more efficient to train and deploy — which is critical for real-world systems where both accuracy and speed matter. Statisticians and deep learning researchers often use distinct methodologies, vocabulary and frameworks, making communication and collaboration challenging. Unfortunately, there is a lack of Interdisciplinary education: Traditional academic programs rarely integrate both fields. It is necessary to foster joint programs, workshops, and cross-disciplinary training can help bridge this gap. From Moussa's experience coming through an industrial PhD, he has seen how many industry settings tend to prioritize short-term gains — favoring quick wins in deep learning over deeper, more fundamental improvements. To overcome this, we need to build long-term research partnerships between academia and industry — ones that allow for foundational work to evolve alongside practical applications. That kind of collaboration can drive more sustainable, impactful innovation in the long run, something we do at methods for big data. Looking ahead, one of the major directions for deep learning in the next five to ten years is the shift toward trustworthy AI. We're already seeing growing attention on making models more explainable, fair, and robust — especially as AI systems are being deployed in critical areas like healthcare, mobility, and finance. The group also expect to see more hybrid models — combining deep learning with Bayesian methods, physics-based models, or symbolic reasoning. These approaches can help bridge the gap between raw performance and interpretability, and often lead to more data-efficient solutions. Another big trend is the rise of uncertainty-aware AI. As AI moves into more high-risk, real-world applications, it becomes essential that systems understand and communicate their own confidence. This is where uncertainty modeling will play a key role — helping to make AI not just more powerful, but also more safe and reliable. The lecture "Advanced Bayesian Data Analysis" covers fundamental concepts in Bayesian statistics, including parametric and non-parametric regression, computational techniques such as MCMC and variational inference, and Bayesian priors for handling high-dimensional data. Additionally, the lecturers offer a Research Seminar on Selected Topics in Statistical Learning and Data Science. The workgroup offers a variety of Master's thesis topics at the intersection of statistics and deep learning, focusing on Bayesian modeling, uncertainty quantification, and high-dimensional methods. Current topics include predictive information criteria for Bayesian models and uncertainty quantification in deep learning. Topics span theoretical, methodological, computational and applied projects. Students interested in rigorous theoretical and applied research are encouraged to explore our available projects and contact us for further details. The general advice of Nadja and Moussa for everybody interested to enter the field is: "Develop a strong foundation in statistical and mathematical principles, rather than focusing solely on the latest trends. Gain expertise in both theory and practical applications, as real-world impact requires a balance of both. Be open to interdisciplinary collaboration. Some of the most exciting and meaningful innovations happen at the intersection of fields — whether that's statistics and deep learning, or AI and domain-specific areas like medicine or mobility. So don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, ask questions across disciplines, and look for ways to connect different perspectives. That's often where real breakthroughs happen. With every new challenge comes an opportunity to innovate, and that's what keeps this work exciting. We're always pushing for more robust, efficient, and trustworthy AI. And we're also growing — so if you're a motivated researcher interested in this space, we'd love to hear from you." Literature and further information Webpage of the group G. Nuti, Lluis A.J.

In this episode Gudrun speaks with Nadja Klein and Moussa Kassem Sbeyti who work at the Scientific Computing Center (SCC) at KIT in Karlsruhe. Since August 2024, Nadja has been professor at KIT leading the research group Methods for Big Data (MBD) there. She is an Emmy Noether Research Group Leader, and a member of AcademiaNet, and Die Junge Akademie, among others. In 2025, Nadja was awarded the Committee of Presidents of Statistical Societies (COPSS) Emerging Leader Award (ELA). The COPSS ELA recognizes early career statistical scientists who show evidence of and potential for leadership and who will help shape and strengthen the field. She finished her doctoral studies in Mathematics at the Universität Göttingen before conducting a postdoc at the University of Melbourne as a Feodor-Lynen fellow by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Afterwards she was a Professor for Statistics and Data Science at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin before joining KIT. Moussa joined Nadja's lab as an associated member in 2023 and later as a postdoctoral researcher in 2024. He pursued a PhD at the TU Berlin while working as an AI Research Scientist at the Continental AI Lab in Berlin. His research primarily focuses on deep learning, developing uncertainty-based automated labeling methods for 2D object detection in autonomous driving. Prior to this, Moussa earned his M.Sc. in Mechatronics Engineering from the TU Darmstadt in 2021. The research of Nadja and Moussa is at the intersection of statistics and machine learning. In Nadja's MBD Lab the research spans theoretical analysis, method development and real-world applications. One of their key focuses is Bayesian methods, which allow to incorporate prior knowledge, quantify uncertainties, and bring insights to the “black boxes” of machine learning. By fusing the precision and reliability of Bayesian statistics with the adaptability of machine and deep learning, these methods aim to leverage the best of both worlds. The KIT offers a strong research environment, making it an ideal place to continue their work. They bring new expertise that can be leveraged in various applications and on the other hand Helmholtz offers a great platform in that respect to explore new application areas. For example Moussa decided to join the group at KIT as part of the Helmholtz Pilot Program Core-Informatics at KIT (KiKIT), which is an initiative focused on advancing fundamental research in informatics within the Helmholtz Association. Vision models typically depend on large volumes of labeled data, but collecting and labeling this data is both expensive and prone to errors. During his PhD, his research centered on data-efficient learning using uncertainty-based automated labeling techniques. That means estimating and using the uncertainty of models to select the helpful data samples to train the models to label the rest themselves. Now, within KiKIT, his work has evolved to include knowledge-based approaches in multi-task models, eg. detection and depth estimation — with the broader goal of enabling the development and deployment of reliable, accurate vision systems in real-world applications. Statistics and data science are fascinating fields, offering a wide variety of methods and applications that constantly lead to new insights. Within this domain, Bayesian methods are especially compelling, as they enable the quantification of uncertainty and the incorporation of prior knowledge. These capabilities contribute to making machine learning models more data-efficient, interpretable, and robust, which are essential qualities in safety-critical domains such as autonomous driving and personalized medicine. Nadja is also enthusiastic about the interdisciplinarity of the subject — repeatedly changing the focus from mathematics to economics to statistics to computer science. The combination of theoretical fundamentals and practical applications makes statistics an agile and important field of research in data science. From a deep learning perspective, the focus is on making models both more efficient and more reliable when dealing with large-scale data and complex dependencies. One way to do this is by reducing the need for extensive labeled data. They also work on developing self-aware models that can recognize when they're unsure and even reject their own predictions when necessary. Additionally, they explore model pruning techniques to improve computational efficiency, and specialize in Bayesian deep learning, allowing machine learning models to better handle uncertainty and complex dependencies. Beyond the methods themselves, they also contribute by publishing datasets that help push the development of next-generation, state-of-the-art models. The learning methods are applied across different domains such as object detection, depth estimation, semantic segmentation, and trajectory prediction — especially in the context of autonomous driving and agricultural applications. As deep learning technologies continue to evolve, they're also expanding into new application areas such as medical imaging. Unlike traditional deep learning, Bayesian deep learning provides uncertainty estimates alongside predictions, allowing for more principled decision-making and reducing catastrophic failures in safety-critical application. It has had a growing impact in several real-world domains where uncertainty really matters. Bayesian learning incorporates prior knowledge and updates beliefs as new data comes in, rather than relying purely on data-driven optimization. In healthcare, for example, Bayesian models help quantify uncertainty in medical diagnoses, which supports more risk-aware treatment decisions and can ultimately lead to better patient outcomes. In autonomous vehicles, Bayesian models play a key role in improving safety. By recognizing when the system is uncertain, they help capture edge cases more effectively, reduce false positives and negatives in object detection, and navigate complex, dynamic environments — like bad weather or unexpected road conditions — more reliably. In finance, Bayesian deep learning enhances both risk assessment and fraud detection by allowing the system to assess how confident it is in its predictions. That added layer of information supports more informed decision-making and helps reduce costly errors. Across all these areas, the key advantage is the ability to move beyond just accuracy and incorporate trust and reliability into AI systems. Bayesian methods are traditionally more expensive, but modern approximations (e.g., variational inference or last layer inference) make them feasible. Computational costs depend on the problem — sometimes Bayesian models require fewer data points to achieve better performance. The trade-off is between interpretability and computational efficiency, but hardware improvements are helping bridge this gap. Their research on uncertainty-based automated labeling is designed to make models not just safer and more reliable, but also more efficient. By reducing the need for extensive manual labeling, one improves the overall quality of the dataset while cutting down on human effort and potential labeling errors. Importantly, by selecting informative samples, the model learns from better data — which means it can reach higher performance with fewer training examples. This leads to faster training and better generalization without sacrificing accuracy. They also focus on developing lightweight uncertainty estimation techniques that are computationally efficient, so these benefits don't come with heavy resource demands. In short, this approach helps build models that are more robust, more adaptive to new data, and significantly more efficient to train and deploy — which is critical for real-world systems where both accuracy and speed matter. Statisticians and deep learning researchers often use distinct methodologies, vocabulary and frameworks, making communication and collaboration challenging. Unfortunately, there is a lack of Interdisciplinary education: Traditional academic programs rarely integrate both fields. It is necessary to foster joint programs, workshops, and cross-disciplinary training can help bridge this gap. From Moussa's experience coming through an industrial PhD, he has seen how many industry settings tend to prioritize short-term gains — favoring quick wins in deep learning over deeper, more fundamental improvements. To overcome this, we need to build long-term research partnerships between academia and industry — ones that allow for foundational work to evolve alongside practical applications. That kind of collaboration can drive more sustainable, impactful innovation in the long run, something we do at methods for big data. Looking ahead, one of the major directions for deep learning in the next five to ten years is the shift toward trustworthy AI. We're already seeing growing attention on making models more explainable, fair, and robust — especially as AI systems are being deployed in critical areas like healthcare, mobility, and finance. The group also expect to see more hybrid models — combining deep learning with Bayesian methods, physics-based models, or symbolic reasoning. These approaches can help bridge the gap between raw performance and interpretability, and often lead to more data-efficient solutions. Another big trend is the rise of uncertainty-aware AI. As AI moves into more high-risk, real-world applications, it becomes essential that systems understand and communicate their own confidence. This is where uncertainty modeling will play a key role — helping to make AI not just more powerful, but also more safe and reliable. The lecture "Advanced Bayesian Data Analysis" covers fundamental concepts in Bayesian statistics, including parametric and non-parametric regression, computational techniques such as MCMC and variational inference, and Bayesian priors for handling high-dimensional data. Additionally, the lecturers offer a Research Seminar on Selected Topics in Statistical Learning and Data Science. The workgroup offers a variety of Master's thesis topics at the intersection of statistics and deep learning, focusing on Bayesian modeling, uncertainty quantification, and high-dimensional methods. Current topics include predictive information criteria for Bayesian models and uncertainty quantification in deep learning. Topics span theoretical, methodological, computational and applied projects. Students interested in rigorous theoretical and applied research are encouraged to explore our available projects and contact us for further details. The general advice of Nadja and Moussa for everybody interested to enter the field is: "Develop a strong foundation in statistical and mathematical principles, rather than focusing solely on the latest trends. Gain expertise in both theory and practical applications, as real-world impact requires a balance of both. Be open to interdisciplinary collaboration. Some of the most exciting and meaningful innovations happen at the intersection of fields — whether that's statistics and deep learning, or AI and domain-specific areas like medicine or mobility. So don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone, ask questions across disciplines, and look for ways to connect different perspectives. That's often where real breakthroughs happen. With every new challenge comes an opportunity to innovate, and that's what keeps this work exciting. We're always pushing for more robust, efficient, and trustworthy AI. And we're also growing — so if you're a motivated researcher interested in this space, we'd love to hear from you." Literature and further information Webpage of the group G. Nuti, Lluis A.J.

Beyond offering a theoretical and historical overview of mad studies, this Reader draws on the perspectives, voices, and experiences of artists, mad pride activists, humanities and social science scholars, and critical clinicians to explore the complexity of mental life and mental difference.  Voices from these groups confront and challenge standard approaches to mental difference. They advance new structures of meaning and practice that are inclusive of those who have been systematically subjugated and promote anti-sanist approaches to counter inequalities, prejudices, and discrimination. Confronting modes of psychological oppression and the power of a few to interpret and define difference for so many, the Mad Studies Reader asks the critical question of how these approaches may be reconsidered, resisted, and reclaimed. This collection will be of interest to mental health clinicians; students and scholars of the arts, humanities and social sciences; and anyone who has been affected by mental difference, directly or indirectly, who is curious to explore new perspectives. Bradley Lewis is a psychiatrist and psychotherapist with a background in the arts and humanities. He is Associate Professor at New York University's Gallatin School of Individualized Study and he is on the editorial board of the Journal of Medical Humanities. His books include Moving Beyond Prozac, DSM, and the New Psychiatry: The Birth of Postpsychiatry; Narrative Psychiatry: How Stories Can Shape Clinical Encounters; and Experiencing Epiphanies in Literature, Cinema, and Everyday Life (forthcoming).

In this episode, we (Mark Raffler and Sarah Shoemaker) connect with longtime Kent ISD mentor & author, Kelly Gallagher.  Kelly's latest book:  “To Read Stuff, You Have to Know Stuff:  Helping Students Build and Use Prior Knowldge” is the topic of today's podcast.  "To Read Stuff, You Have to Know Stuff" is not merely a catchy title but a fundamental principle of literacy education. Educators must prioritize building students' prior knowledge, fostering critical thinking skills, and creating a curriculum that reflects multiple, various perspectives and prepares students to engage with the world around them.  In this episode, Kelly Gallagher addresses how his book came about and why “knowing stuff” in a digital world is still important. Here are some highlights from our conversation:Kelly's book emphasizes that reading is as much knowing as decoding.  He suggests that students may struggle with texts not because they can't decode the words, but because they lack the necessary background knowledge to understand the content.To Read Stuff, You Have to Know Stuff addresses prior knowledge, word and sentence level understanding, article level comprehension, and book level comprehension.  Interdisciplinary connections are emphasized.  Gallagher emphasizes the reciprocal relationships of reading and writing."Click and go" reading has created new neurological pathways in the brain, yet it's crucial to develop the ability to sustain attention and thought over longer periods, especially during critical developmental stages."If you don't learn how to think critically while you're in that stage, you lose the ability to think critically the rest of your life."The discussion centers on the crucial role of prior knowledge in adolescent literacy, comprehension, and critical thinking, as well as practical strategies for educators to build this knowledge in their classrooms.Concluding with our normal podcast protocol, we ask for resources for educators to learn more about To Read Stuff, You Have to Know Stuff.  Check out our podcast resource page for all the links!We wrap up this episode by asking listeners to share your thoughts on podcast topics - your voice matters!  Please visit bit.ly/LLCNtopics to tell us what you want future podcasts to focus on in relation to literacy.  All resources in this LLCN Brief (and future podcasts) can be found at:  bit.ly/LLCNresources2425  Subscribe to the Literacy Leadership and Coaches Network podcasts here: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/llcnbrief or your favorite podcast platform.Please note the audio used as an introduction and in transitions in this podcast is under the Creative Common License and attribution is given as follows:Medicine by WinnieTheMoogLink: https://filmmusic.io/song/6256-medicineLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

In this episode of Confessions of a Higher Ed CMO, Jaime Hunt sits down with Eric Hollenbeck from Washington State University's Carson College of Business to unpack the findings of the 2024 Ethical Marketing Survey. This groundbreaking research highlights public perceptions of ethical practices in marketing, including AI usage, misinformation, and the need for transparency. Together, they discuss actionable strategies for higher education marketers to build trust, address generational differences, and navigate the evolving ethical landscape of marketing in the AI era.Key TakeawaysTransparency is Key: 76% of survey respondents believe organizations should disclose AI usage in marketing. Higher ed institutions should develop clear policies and openly communicate AI's role in their processes.Generational Differences in AI Comfort: Millennials are more comfortable with AI due to its integration into their daily lives. Tailoring messaging about AI benefits based on generational values can improve trust.Ethical Marketing Drives Long-Term Success: Public sentiment favors transparency and ethical practices, making them essential for institutions aiming to build lasting credibility.Media Literacy is a Higher Ed Responsibility: With only 57% of survey respondents confident in identifying misinformation, higher ed institutions have a pivotal role in fostering media literacy among students and the public.Policy Development Matters: Institutions should establish, review, and communicate policies on ethical marketing and AI use to ensure trust and accountability.Episode SummaryWhat is the 2024 Ethical Marketing Survey? Eric Hollenbeck describes the 2024 Ethical Marketing Survey, which surveyed 1,000 Americans to gauge public opinions on AI, misinformation, influencer marketing, and brand ethics. The survey offers key insights into public expectations, revealing that transparency and honesty are critical for maintaining consumer trust.How Should Higher Ed Marketers Approach AI Transparency? One of the standout findings was that 76% of respondents believe organizations should disclose their use of AI in marketing. Eric suggests that higher ed marketers should proactively communicate their AI use, especially for tools like chatbots or AI-generated content. He emphasizes that transparency builds credibility and aligns with the public's call for openness.Jaime and Eric also explore the nuanced question of what AI usage warrants disclosure. They agree that while everyday uses like brainstorming might not require transparency, AI-generated visuals or personalized student experiences should be openly communicated. This distinction ensures ethical practices without overwhelming audiences with unnecessary details.How Can Higher Ed Tailor Messaging Across Generations? The survey highlighted generational differences, with millennials showing greater comfort with AI. Eric notes that marketers should focus on the benefits of AI technologies when crafting messages for each generation. For younger audiences, emphasize how AI improves convenience and responsiveness. For older generations, stress accuracy and reduced human error. This approach ensures messaging resonates with diverse audience segments.What Role Should Higher Ed Play in Media Literacy? Eric shares insights from Washington State University's programs that integrate media literacy education into their curriculum. For example, the WSU Skills and Knowledge Accelerator teaches graduate students marketing and media ethics. Interdisciplinary collaboration across departments amplifies these efforts, helping students and the public navigate misinformation and develop critical thinking skills.Jaime and Eric stress that fostering media literacy isn't just an institutional responsibility—it's essential for preparing students to thrive in an increasingly complex digital world.What Ethical Practices Should Higher Ed Marketers Prioritize? Eric provides several recommendations for marketers to uphold ethical standards:Engage in Transparent Conversations: Clearly disclose AI use in marketing campaigns and communications.Focus on Authentic Storytelling: Highlight genuine student and institutional stories to build trust.Develop and Review Policies: Regularly revisit policies on data privacy, AI use, and ethical marketing to stay aligned with public expectations.Champion Media Literacy: Partner with faculty and academic units to educate students and the public on identifying misinformation.Jaime echoes these points, emphasizing that empathy-driven marketing is key to aligning with audience needs and building lasting trust. - - - -Connect With Our Host:Jaime Hunthttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jaimehunt/https://twitter.com/JaimeHuntIMCAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:Confessions of a Higher Ed CMO is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.
