Excited to welcome James Lang to UA today! His work has profoundly shaped how so many of us think about teaching and learning. Looking forward to the wisdom—and the sparks—that come from gathering around ideas that matter.
Colleagues, I’d like to share my Website with any of you who might find a college teaching website useful!
It’s the Cross Academy, and you can find it here: https://kpcrossacademy.ua.edu

Really neat thing about launching a new teaching center is all of the fabulous people you get to meet and work with. Actually, that's probably just a perk of working in higher education generally.

New publication: "Interview with Steve McCarty" [on his professorial accomplishments in Japan].
The College and University Educators research group of the Japan Association for Language Teaching has honored me with their second annual Veteran Teacher Voices interview on my teaching career in Japan. I critique the foreign language teaching profession, discuss future trends of increasing foreigners in Japan, the need for English, and long-term effects of AI on language acquisition.
I believe educationalists will find this article interesting: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/386424805

Found flipcam footage of a talk I gave at the HBCU 2010 Faculty Development Network conference, discussing how Plato's dialogues, when used well, furnish opportunities to foster reading, writing, & critical thinking skills. Edited it, and here's the video
