ОТНОСТНО ТОЗИ ЕПИЗОД
What does it take to truly thrive as an online instructor — and why does it matter so much for students? In this episode, Eric Mazur sits down with Flower Darby, Associate Director of the Teaching for Learning Center at the University of Missouri and author of the recently published book, The Joyful Online TeacherFinding Our Fizz in Asynchronous Classes. Flower shares why instructor well-being isn't a luxury but a pedagogical necessity, how meaningful social connections can combat the isolation that plagues asynchronous courses, and why joy may be one of the most underrated tools in an educator's toolkit. Whether you teach online, in person, or somewhere in between, this episode is a reminder that centering the people in your classroom (starting with yourself) makes all the difference.
