About Today's Show
Welcome to episode 6, Season 5 of #SenecaProud Podcast!
In this episode, I speak with three professors who have created a regular, weekly online roundtable that has proven to be something quite special. Borne out of the need for connection we all felt during the COVID lockdowns, these weekly roundtables have become an opportunity for Seneca Faculty of the Arts to connect, share common experiences as educators, and simply hold space for each other, and for themselves, and as such have become tremendously popular.
In this episode we learn how the professors manage to do week after week, what they talk about, and how you might want to set up one such forum for your workplace, department, or for whatever group you have in mind.
And fun fact, our guests today are each bronze recipients of the CICan (Colleges and Institutes Canada) Leadership Excellence Award for Faculty as a result of the positive contribution their Roundtables have provided.
In this episode we also talk about:
- The key difference between a meeting, and a Roundtable (ca you guess?)
- How ChatGPT is impacting the teaching landscape
- Best practices to help YOU can start your own weekly online Roundtable
- Lots more!
