Featuring interesting faculty from across the disciplines, 2-1-7 Talking About Teaching is a short-form podcast where two people talk about one topic for seven minutes. Hosted and produced by CITL, Talking About Teaching offers bite-sized stories that highlight effective teaching strategies, challenges, and innovative practices happening in classrooms on the University of Illinois campus.
Off Syllabus with Manny is a series where we explore together the parts of teaching that do not make it to the syllabus. These are lessons faculty uncover through experience, reflection, and sometimes just surviving the week. This podcast is about the discoveries we make as faculty: what actually works in the classroom, how students learn and what they need from us, how we support them while still protecting our own well-being, and how we grow into the educators we never knew we could be. The goal of this podcast is to uncover the lessons that shape our teaching, our students, and ourselves the ones we learn through experience.
