Notorious Pedagogues

At the beginning of December 2019 we visited the recording booth after a few days of intense work on our book project. We soon realized we were having an interesting conversation about writing and being (co-)authors and that some might find our reflections interesting. Enjoy!

In late September 2019, Drs. Kruger-Ross & Schmidt sat down to discuss recent updates with their scholarly activities. Listen in on our conversation!

In this episode, Drs. Schmidt and Kruger-Ross look back and reflect on the Book Club assignment/podcast and sketch out where this assignment might lead in the future.  This episode is a focused window into our pedagogical thought process -- and who knows if it will pan out in the future as we've sketched it out here!
