Episode notes

We're looking at the ways in which there is congruence between the syllabus and an ideal we want to have for our students. How those things get informed by our self perceptions and our teaching styles. We landed on a scale that goes back decades in psychological research from albert morabian. And his theory was that human language cally communicates emotions onon three dimensions, pleasure, arousal and dominance.

Christopher Richmann talks about the self and syllabus project on episode 418 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
