  1. Episode 26: Saying Goodbye... For Now

    It's been fun, everybody, but summer is upon us – it's time to say goodbye to season 1 of Podagogy! Before we head off, though, tune in for our final thoughts on what this project has meant to us, what topics we still want to cover, and also some exciting news about our plans for next year.…

  2. Episode 25: Cheaters Never Prosper... Or Do They?

    This week, after your hosts both reveal some past indiscretions, we dive into the topic of academic integrity: why is it that so many students are driven to cheat? How rigorously do we as teachers search out moments when our students have cheated? And what do we do when we find those moments?

  3. Episode 24: Why We Love Curtis Sittenfeld's "Prep"

    This week, we give an argument for one of our favorite texts to read with high-schoolers: Curtis Sittenfeld's novel "Prep".

  6. Episode 21: No Homework Night... Every Night???

    This week, Laura and Austin debate the merits of homework. How much should we be giving? What kinds of work should we be asking our students to complete on our own? And the risky question: is homework even necessary at all?

  7. Episode 20: In Defense of the Podcast

    This week, we are so excited to welcome Michael Godsey as our special guest! Michael teaches English in San Luis Obispo, CA, and he's written several articles on education for The Atlantic. We were so inspired by his latest article, "The Value of Using Podcasts in Class," that we reached out and...

  8. Episode 19: Thinking Development

    We're back from our spring hiatus! In this episode, we welcome longtime Podagogy fan Tom White as our guest. In his role as our school's Director of Faculty Development, Tom's been thinking a lot about what faculty members can be working on outside the classroom to improve what happens inside the...
