    The Harbinger of Death (of Human Thought)? A Discussion on AI in the Classroom
    Feb 26 2024

    Hi, Corrupters! 

    ****the following show notes were generated using GhatGPT****

    Today, we're delving into a hot topic in education— the use of generative AI in college courses. As technology continues to advance, educators are faced with the decision of integrating artificial intelligence into their teaching methods. In this episode, we'll be discussing the pros and cons of using generative AI in higher education. We also broach the question - is there a middle ground? We explore how educators can strike a balance between leveraging generative AI and maintaining a human touch in education. We also discuss the importance of adequately training educators to navigate and maximize the benefits of AI integration.

    Rate These Professors: A Discussion on Student Evaluations
    Sep 18 2023
    Hi, corrupters!  We know it is just the beginning of the fall semester, but we are already thinking about student evaluations! In this one we talk about what they are, the purpose they serve, where they could maybe use some improvement. Love them or hate them, student evaluations play an important role in the academic job. What are your thoughts on how to use them to improve your pedagogy?-Cassie  Music: East Side Manhattan by Popoi | https://soundcloud.com/popoimusic Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.com Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

  • Job Hunting Season: Navigating the Current Job Market (Part 2)

    Job Hunting Season: Navigating the Current Job Market (Part 2)
    Sep 4 2023
    _____________________________________________________________________________Hello beautiful people!  In this episode, Cassie and I acknowledge the passage of time (our pt. 2 episode was recorded months apart from pt. 1. As such, we are coming into the topic with fresh eyes. We reflect on our experiences being on the job market. August/September is usually the start of the job hunting season where jobs get posted. Cassie talks about the questions you should have and gives dating advice while Jacob wonders if we have any listeners who are jerks. We talk about how the first interview is a unique opportunity for you as an applicant as well as go over the “job talks” you give. We share resources that helped us tread the waters to stay on top of your applications. Lastly, we tell about our experiences for both the 1st interview as well our the 2nd, in-person interview. This journey is a tricky one and we hope we can shed some light onto it.-JacobResources mentioned:  Job Application - Tracking Sheet from Dr. Cassie Whitt: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wrlLbMCMv8tnZSJy_YjjjmCT7sgeGqbo/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=103527985203401271150&rtpof=true&sd=truePsychology Jobs Wiki: http://psychjobsearch.wikidot.com/2021The Professor Is In [Blog Site]: https://theprofessorisin.com/Agency by Alex-Productions | https://onsound.eu/Music promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons / Attribution 3.0 Unported License (CC BY 3.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US

    Mar 6 2023

    Hi, corrupters!  

    We know, we know. It’s been a long time since you’ve really heard from us. This episode is a nice little chat between the two of us – full of updates on jobs, recent publications, and…our dental health (trigger warning: if you don’t like to talk about teeth…maybe skip the first five minutes!).

    See y’all soon!

  • Inhale, Exhale: A Discussion on Teacher Well-being and Mindfulness with Dr. Summer Braun  

    Inhale, Exhale: A Discussion on Teacher Well-being and Mindfulness with Dr. Summer Braun  
    Jan 30 2023

    Hi, corrupters!  

     

    We are so excited to publish this week’s episode in which we interview Dr. Summer Braun – an assistant professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Alabama.

    Dr. Braun’s program of research primarily focuses on understanding the associations between teachers’ occupational health and well-being and their students’ social, emotional, and behavioral development using a variety of methodological approaches. Her work bridges research and practice by studying interventions designed to support the well-being of teachers and students, such as mindfulness-based wellness programs. In this episode, we chat about teachers’ well-being, the effects of mindfulness practices, and even do a mindfulness body-scan activity!

    This is probably our most interactive episode yet! Enjoy!

  • So you want to start your own lab? Getting mentorship advice with Dr. Jon Gore

    So you want to start your own lab? Getting mentorship advice with Dr. Jon Gore
    Jan 16 2023

    Hello hello beautiful people,

    Long time no listen! While the Fall semester heated up Cassie and I needed to cool down – but we’re back! In this episode, we interview one of Cassie’s mentors from her undergraduate days, Dr. Jon Gore. Dr. Gore is faculty at Eastern Kentucky University. Not only does he have a prolific lab that engages undergraduates in research, he is also an accomplished hip-hop artist and creative writer who is on his 24th book! In this episode, he shares his wisdom on leading a student-driven lab, discusses his research (on the self, goal motivation, and even dreams), critiques the traditional text-test format, and how to vet RAs and build a healthy personal life + lab culture. We hope you enjoy 😊

    Note: There are some audio issues towards the 52-54 minute mark, so if you hear some odd noises, its not you, it’s us ~
