Role Rehearsal (Doug Ward, University of Kansas)

Wired Ivy

The curtain is rising on another academic year — admittedly it's odd one — and another season of Wired Ivy!
Now COVID-19 has shoved online teaching in higher ed from backstage to center stage… in university operational plans, in faculty development offerings, in the lives of students and their families, and in the news. Six months in and counting, there’s an expectation building among fans and critics alike that it’s time to move on from the dress rehearsal of emergency remote instruction to professional-level productions… or at least an overture of better things to come.
As such, in Season 2 our goal is to provide Innovation Inspiration through conversations with your colleagues… knowledgeable, inventive, courageous educators from diverse disciplines and institutions, sharing ideas that you can try in your own virtual classrooms. We’re opening with Role Rehearsal, an exploration of the Socratic method* for the virtual stage, directed by University of Kansas' Doug Ward, to be performed asynchronously with student-audience participation.
*Those of you who have listened to Season 1 might remember that in Episode 7our guest, University of Florida's Thomas Hawkins, mentioned that he was looking for suggestions on how to use the Socratic method in online courses.
