Professors Talk Pedagogy presents discussions with great professors about pedagogy, curriculum, and learning in order to propel the "virtuous cycle" of teaching. As we frankly and critically investigate our teaching, we open new lines of inquiry, we engage in conversation with colleagues, and we attune to students’ experiences—all of which not only improves our teaching but enriches and motivates ongoing investigation. And so the cycle continues!
