The CTL is Relaunching the Reading Group!

 

This semester, we are reading Geeky Pedagogy : A Guide for Intellectuals, Introverts, and Nerds Who Want to Be Effective Teachers by Jessamyn Neuhas.

Geeky Pedagogy is a funny, highly readable guide to the process of learning and relearning how to be an effective college teacher. It encourages faculty to embrace their inner nerd, celebrates increasingly diverse geek culture, and explores stereotypes about super-smart introverts. Neuhaus invites readers to join her in an engaging, critically reflective conversation about teaching and learning in higher education as a geek, introvert, or nerd. Written for the wonks and eggheads who want to translate their vast scholarly expertise into authentic student learning, Geeky Pedagogy is packed with practical advice and encouragement for increasing readers' pedagogical knowledge.
