Dr Yvonne Couch - Pedagogy For Gen Z

Dr Yvonne Couch narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.Do we actually need to teach Gen Z differently, or do they just need to grow up a bit? Yvonne read a Times Higher Ed article that annoyed her enough to annoy several colleagues with it, and this blog is what came out. She is not convinced by shorter lectures with cliffhangers. She is much more interested in what happens when you hand third years a hypothetical million pounds and ask them what they would do with it. Along the way she tests one of her own essay questions on ChatGPT, and finds the gap that matters.https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/blog-pedagogy-for-gen-z/--Dr Yvonne Couch is a Research Fellow and Associate Professor at the University of Oxford. Yvonne studies the role of extracellular vesicles and their role in changing the function of the vasculature after stroke, aiming to discover why the prevalence of dementia after stroke is three times higher than the average. It is her passion for problem solving and love of science that drives her, in advancing our knowledge of disease. Yvonne writes about her work, academic life, and careers as she takes a new road into independent research.--Enjoy listening?
