Welcome to today's podcast! With the celebration of today's episode, number 300, we are reviewing the top episodes of Lifting the Lifter's! First, Managing Weakness with Jason Hunt. In this episode, we talk about our weaknesses and how we typically handle them, with coping strategies and mechanisms. All in an effort to avoid uncomfortable emotion. We use the ACE acronym, acknowledge, connect, and engage, to help us when we are in that unhealthy place to move forward and upward. We also discuss avoiding idle time and using deliberate actions to help us maintain a path of growth and progression. The second-highest podcast is an interview I did way back in the beginning with Jeff Brabant. I did this interview and then also did a replay because it is so good. Jeff was my son Dylan's baseball coach at Miles Community College in Miles City, Montana. Besides being an amazing coach, he was again, like Jason, a good human with so much wisdom and perspective. One of the main things I loved about Jeff and his coaching style with the BOAC he had with each player. BOAC stands for a "bit of a chat." This episode was full of nuggets of wisdom for us all! Third top episode: Interview with my brother-in-law and sister about his battle with cancer. It was raw and real. Luke was diagnosed with lung cancer that shocked us all. He has never smoked and has been a healthy, rough-and-tough hunter and dad his whole life. The interview with him and my sister was full of tenderness, love, miracles, and hope. If you or a loved one is struggling right now with a diagnosis, this one is good. Henry Ford said: "Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young." Aging is a journey of accumulating wisdom and new experiences, not just years, allowing us to become more authentic versions of ourselves. Keep learning and growing!

Learnovate, a leading global future of work and learning research hub in Trinity College Dublin, is leading a new Community of Practice for AI implementers and practitioners involved in teaching and learning. The Responsible AI for Learning (RAIL) initiative will allow practitioners to share knowledge, interpret guidelines, and comply with AI regulations. Learnovate is leading the RAIL initiative, which is made up of professionals from all four education domains, including schools, higher education, vocational education and training, and professional education, as well as representatives from the Department of Education, teaching unions, and other sectors. RAIL was formed in November last year when more than 50 professionals in the education sector came together in Trinity College Dublin to discuss the need for a collective interpretation of the AI Advisory Council's guidelines on the use of AI in education. There was also agreement at the meeting on the need for a facility to share knowledge, discuss the opportunities and risks accompanying the use of AI in education, and support each other in complying with the EU AI Act. RAIL will host its inaugural meeting on February 24 2026. The one-hour event is one of three virtual meetings set to take place this year, with a fourth in-person event to follow in November. Those wishing to attend the free event can register at www.learnovatecentre.org/events The February 24 meeting will be led by Dr Gill Ferrell, Executive Director for Europe of 1EdTech, a global organisation promoting and supporting education standards and protocols for K-12 through to higher education and professional education. She will deliver a presentation to the event entitled, 'A European and Global Perspective on AI in Education: Opportunity, Risk, and a Vision for the Future'. Dr Ferrell's expertise is in understanding, managing and guiding the use of technology in learning. She has held senior roles with Jisc, the agency that manages shared services for education institutions and provides advice and guidance to UK education, and has published research in curriculum, student data, social media, assessment and feedback, and design of learning spaces. She has also worked with Universities and Colleges Information Systems Association (UCISA) and European University Information Systems Association (EUNIS). The Community of Practice will be chaired in 2026 by Jonathan Dempsey, Commercial Lead for Diotima, an AI-enabled platform for formative assessment and feedback. Diotima supports teaching practice using responsible AI to provide learners with feedback, leading to more and better assessments and improved learning outcomes for students, and a more manageable workload for teachers. In 2025, Diotima received €500,000 in funding from the Enterprise Ireland Commercialisation Fund, which helps third-level researchers to translate their research into innovative and commercially viable products, services and companies. Diotima partnered with Learnovate in February last year and will spin out of Trinity College Dublin as a company in 2026. The Learnovate Centre at Trinity College Dublin is a leading global future of work and learning research hub funded by Enterprise Ireland and IDA Ireland. Learnovate Managing Director Nessa McEniff said: "Learnovate is delighted to lead the formation of Responsible AI for Learning, a new Community of Practice. The group was formed following the publication of the guidelines on the use of AI in education by the AI Advisory Council. Rather than try to interpret those guidelines in a silo, implementers and practitioners came together to establish a collective interpretation, share knowledge, and ensure compliance with AI regulations. We look forward to the inaugural virtual meeting of RAIL on February 24 2026, the first of four planned for 2026, including one in-person meeting in November." RAIL Chair and Diotima Commercial Lead Jonathan Dempsey said: "Everyone involved in schools, highe...

Speaking of Higher Ed: Conversations on Teaching and Learning
Dr. Bonni Stachowiak is the host of Teaching in Higher Ed, a long-running podcast focused on the art and science of teaching. In this episode, we talk with her about what years of conversations with educators have taught her about teaching and learning. She reflects on curiosity, presence, relationships, and the role failure plays in meaningful learning. Our conversation also touches on faculty development, navigating change in higher education, and how educators can continue growing over time. This episode includes a Continuing the Conversation Activity, an optional resource designed to help you reflect on the ideas discussed and consider how they apply to your own teaching or professional practice. You can sign up to receive the activity on our show page.
Jacques Pépin just turned 90, and he's spent his career defying expectations. By 1958, at the age of 23, he had cooked for three French presidents. But he left that life to work at a high-end restaurant in New York, then gave that up to cook at Howard Johnson's, making food for the masses. After a life-altering accident, Jacques found his next love: teaching other people how to cook. By the early ‘90s he was one of America's best-known TV chefs. This week, Dan visits Jacques at his home in Connecticut, where the chef shares his recipe for SPAM, talks about his pivot to Instagram, and discusses the pleasures of a life spent experimenting.Jacques Pépin's latest book is The Art of Jacques Pépin: Favorite Recipes and Paintings from My Life in the Kitchen.This episode originally aired on January 24, 2022, and was produced by Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, Johanna Mayer, Tracey Samuelson, and Jared O'Connell.

Send us a textIt's happened to all of us we have to teach grammar and our teeth clench because we hate it. Almost all teachers have some writing instruction, but the grammar lessons remind us of all the red ink on our own papers when we were in school-so we find work arounds and avoid. In this episode Patty McGee, co-author of the new book Not Your Granny's Grammar, shares that it doesn't have to be like that.LinksPatty's websiteNot Your Granny's Grammar book from Corwin Press
I'm excited to talk to Carlo Rotella today. Carlo is Professor of English at Boston College. His books include The World Is Always Coming to an End: Pulling Together and Apart in a Chicago Neighborhood (University of Chicago Press, 2019); Playing in Time: Essays, Profiles, and Other True Stories (University of Chicago Press, 2012); Cut Time: An Education at the Fights (Houghton Mifflin, 2003); and October Cities (University of California Press, 1998). He has written for the New York Times, The Boston Globe, The New Yorker, and Harper's. Today, we discuss Carlo's new book, What Can I Get Out of This?: Teaching and Learning in a Classroom Full of Skeptics (University of California Press, 2025). The book does two things. It directly reports what happened in a class Carlo taught in the spring of 2020. Carlo interviews students in the semesters after the class ended, learning what students were going through while they were taking your class, and also what stood out in their memories years later. The second thing the book does is offer hands-on lessons from a life of teaching. Throughout the book, Carlo discusses how to deal with a class that hates the novel that you assigned, how to reach out to a student who falls silent, and how to introduce the multitude of ways of being enthusiastic about literature to skeptical students.

At a time when college students and their parents often question the "return on investment" from humanities courses, accomplished feature writer and English professor Carlo Rotella invites us into the minds of a group of skeptical first-year students who are ultimately transformed by a required literature class. In What Can I Get Out of This?: Teaching and Learning in a Classroom Full of Skeptics (University of California Press, 2025) he follows thirty-three students through his class to provide an intimate look at teaching and learning from their perspectives as well as his own. The students' reluctance--"How does this get me a job?"--transforms into insight as they wrestle with challenging books, share ideas, discover how to think critically, and form a community. In all these ways, they learn how to extract meaning from the world around them, an essential life skill. Confronting skeptics of higher education, this compassionate and inspiring book reveals the truth of what students actually experience in college.

Today was a truly incredible day. As you know, COBT began in the spring of 2020 with the original mission of trying to share better and more informed energy macro perspectives with the energy-curious world. Over the past five and a half years, it has evolved to become something much bigger, a platform to share a wide range of energy perspectives. Today marked a watershed moment in the history of energy education. As noted in the official press release linked here, Bob Zorich, Partner and Co-Founder of EnCap Investments, made an extraordinarily generous donation to Arizona State University with the sole purpose of advancing energy education. Bob is an alumnus of ASU's Thunderbird School of Global Management, and the investment will directly support energy education and innovation, advancing practical, fact-based solutions to global energy challenges. For those of you who are regular listeners or viewers, you may remember we hosted Dr. Michael Crow, President of ASU, on the podcast in September (episode linked here). What's particularly exciting about ASU is the University's commitment to reimagining education, scaling access, and transforming workforce development. Bob Zorich, as a highly accomplished energy business leader, is passionate about improving energy education and seems to have found a phenomenal partner in ASU. In this week's segment, we broadcast live from ASU's rollout of the new energy education initiative here in Houston. We caught up with Michael and Bob for a quick conversation on a very busy day to discuss the initiative, Bob's passion for expanding energy knowledge, ASU's commitment to fostering problem-solving, the university's diverse student body and global reach, and more. You'll also see Michael and Bob's panel from the event discussing the initiative in detail. We greatly appreciate Michael and Bob for including Veriten in this exciting event. As a wrap up, we are delighted to share that this week marks our 300th regularly scheduled COBT episode. We appreciate the Veriten community and the many great guests who have joined us along the way. We look forward to the next 300 episodes and where they will take us. All we can promise is that we'll continue following our curiosity wherever it leads us and remain committed to letting our guests openly talk about their perspectives so you can form your own views on the complex energy, power, and environmental issues of the day. Our best to you all!

Timea discussed AI in learning and teaching with her guests Dr Noman Mahtab, Subject Lead at LCCA, and Dr Med Kharbach, the founder of Educators Technology. Based on Noman's research 32% of higher education lecturers use AI in teaching, but 77% have never received formal training on it. The guests shared examples of ethical use of AI in teaching, tools they use, how AI can encourage creativity, and the importance of institutional policy-making. It was a lively discussion from academics who successfully use AI in learning and teaching on a daily basis.
In this episode, we're joined by Joel Podolny, CEO of Honor Education and the founding Dean of Apple University, for a deep dive into how organizations can build a culture where teaching and learning are embedded into everyday work.Joel shares insights from his leadership at Apple, Yale, Harvard, and Stanford, focusing on the concept of “experts leading experts.” We examine the challenges and opportunities in empowering top talent to share knowledge, the role of humility and mutual respect, and the steps leaders can take to create meaningful, peer-driven learning environments.Whether you're shaping learning strategy, driving innovation, or developing your teams, this episode offers practical guidance for cultivating a stronger learning culture at every level.
Jessamyn Neuhaus shares about her book, SNAFU Edu: Teaching and Learning When Things Go Wrong in the College Classroom, on episode 577 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode Human beings make mistakes. We make mistakes as part of learning. We make mistakes just being in the world. -Jessamyn Neuhaus Academia generally attracts people with perfectionist tendencies. -Jessamyn Neuhaus Sometimes there is no positive outcome when something goes wrong. Sometimes things just get messed up because people are human. -Jessamyn Neuhaus Inadvertently we have a subtext that teaching is somehow perfectible.

There's so much potential for artificial intelligence and generative AI tools to support teaching and learning, but alongside these exciting opportunities there are challenges and risks. If you're a teacher or a school leader, you may already be using or experimenting with AI tools – and you certainly won't be surprised to hear that many of your students definitely are! Our guest for this special episode is Dr Katie Richardson, Senior Research Fellow at the Australian Council for Educational Research. We'll be talking about 3 broad areas where AI can enable improvements in education, and what that might look like. Also, what the tools can and can't do currently, or replace. And we'll discuss how teachers need to be careful and purposeful in using the different AI tools out there with their students to promote thinking and learning.

Questions? Feedback? Send us a text!In this episode of TRANSFORMED, Joe Gottlieb talks with Alin Vrancila, CEO of Jessup Global and former provost at Multnomah University, about how a challenging institutional merger catalyzed innovation in online learning and pedagogy.Alin shares how Multnomah's financial and enrollment struggles led to a merger with Jessup University—but rather than a mere transition, the partnership sparked bold change. Together, they launched JSA+AI, the first fully AI-enabled learning management system in U.S. higher ed, and introduced Neogogy, a new student-centered educational framework designed for the AI age.This episode explores how AI is redefining faculty roles, reducing administrative burden, and making online learning more interactive, efficient, and human.What You'll Take Away:Mergers can be more than survival tactics—with vision and alignment, they can become platforms for transformation.AI doesn't replace educators—it repositions them to focus more on mentorship, expertise, and student impact.A strong innovation model includes a sandbox—Jessup Global operates as a branch campus to test, refine, and scale new approaches before full rollout.References: Dr. Alin VrancilaJessup UniversityFind out more about Neogogy here: www.neogogy.ai https://neogogy.ai/whitepapers Subscribe or follow TRANSFORMED wherever you listen, to get the latest episode when it drops and hear directly from leaders and innovators in higher ed tech and digital transformation best practices.Find and follow us on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/company/higher-digital-inc

Over the past two years, generative AI has blazed its way on to college campuses, first in the students' hands and increasingly in the hands of administrators and instructors to improve campus operations and enrollment management, as well as teaching and learning. One of the greatest challenges of using generative AI in teaching is providing students with skills without interrupting the process of learning or introducing errors or misinformation. The University of Texas at Austin is in the initial stages of launching a custom GPT model, UT Sage, which serves as a tutor of sorts for students who need help related to a specific course. In this episode of Voices of Student Success, Julie Schell, assistant vice provost of academic technology at UT Austin, shares the inspiration behind the tool, her work with AI in the classroom and teaching the ethics of AI use.

Imagine a world where education isn't just about information but about inspiring awe—a spark that transforms learning into discovery. This episode of Learning Through Experience envisions this future where teaching and learning are more collaborative, experiential and empowering, for instructors and students alike. As my guest Jenny Frederick, director of Yale's Center for Teaching and Learning, emphasized in our conversation: “When experiences bring the conceptual to life—like, wow, I get it now—it can be a moment of wonder." Join us as we discuss the value of embracing ambiguity and equipping students with the skills to navigate uncertainty—a crucial capacity in our rapidly changing world. Beyond theory, we explore how disciplines bring unique strengths and shadows to the learning experience. When classrooms become spaces where curiosity sparks discovery and uncertainty fuels growth, we unlock the potential for truly transformative learning. Wonder isn't just a feeling; it's a force that drives connection, resilience, and creativity in education and beyond. Watch this episode on YouTube.
