Today on the podcast I talk with Jessica Bernards, an experienced online math instructor. Jessica teaches math at Portland Community College and the University of Oregon. She’s also an author and a consultant helping other educators adapt to the world of AI. In our interview, she talks about all the moves she makes to make her students learning visible, to support her online learners when they struggle with learning math, and how her approach to teaching math online has changed because of AI.

The ebook version of my new book, The Norton Guide to AI-Aware Teaching, co-authored with Annette Vee and Marc Watkins, is out! To celebrate its release I’ve interviewed a few of the faculty whose AI-aware teaching we highlight in the book, and I’m excited to share another one of those conversations here on the podcast today.

Jason Gulya is a professor of English and media communications at Berkeley College, where he teaches a variety of online and onsite courses in the humanities. I started following Jason on LinkedIn a few years ago, giving me a glimpse into all the many ways he has adapted his teaching to respond to the challenges and opportunities posed by generative AI. He’s a thought leader in this area, and I was very excited to get him on the line for an interview. In our conversation, he talks about the risks of transactional education and how he pushes back against that model of education through some pretty radical approaches to student agency in their learning.

To celebrate its release I’ve interviewed a few of the faculty whose AI-aware teaching we highlight in the book, and I’m excited to share another one of those conversations here on the podcast today.

Eric Loepp is a professor of political science at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater and co-director of Whitewater’s Center for the Advancement of Teaching, Learning, Scholarship, and Technology. Eric is passionate about teaching political science—something that comes through loud and clear in our interview. He’s also had to figure out a variety of AI-aware teaching practices in the last few years in response to generative AI’s impacts on learning—and on our political discourse. In our conversation, Eric shares some very concrete and AI-aware assignments and learning activities that will, I think inspire you as you adapt to AI in your teaching.
