Dr. Amy Graham talks with Dr. Tori Hidalgo, an associate professor of practice in the Chemistry and Biochemistry department at the University of Arizona (see her full bio on the show site). She shares her journey to becoming an educator and how she overcame her own struggles to become the educator that she needed in school. She also discusses advice for giving feedback, creating an inclusive classroom, tools for active learning, and more.
Tori was awarded Distinguished Early-Career in 2017. In 2021 she was awarded both The Innovation in Teaching award, and The University of Arizona Foundation Leicester and Kathryn Sherrill Creative Teaching Award for her work in the large classroom and has continued to elevate the learning experience for her students despite the large class size and through the transition to zoom during the 2020-2021 academic year.
