Alright students! Class is in SESSION!
Join me as I sit down with Dr. Mary Worley, a seasoned communications professor at UW-Eau Claire, to talk social media education for the future professional communicators of the working world and her innovative approach to teaching. In this episode you'll hear us discuss how she engages students in the learning process for the sheer joy of knowledge acquisition.
Dr. Worley shares her insights on co-creating a dynamic learning experience and fostering collaborative learning environments. She also discusses her teaching strategy which utilizes modern, purpose-driven learning to create deliverables that ultimately become portfolio builders for her students. Her teaching methodology serves a purpose beyond the classroom, preparing students for real-world applications for internships and beyond.
Join us on this journey into the heart of educational innovation, where learning becomes a communal endeavor and the classroom extends far beyond its physical boundaries.
