The Most Important Work of Pedagogy I've Read in Ten Years.

http://www.insidehighered.com/sites/default/server_files/styles/blog_landing/public/JustVisitingLogo_white.jpg?itok=K5uvzo_-By John Warner. By its title, For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood…and the Rest of Y’all Too by Dr. Christopher Emdin isn’t for me.[1]

Reflections Upon Re-Entry

By Matt Reed. The League conference wrapped up on Wednesday in the way that conferences usually do: a half-day in which the dress code abruptly changed. The skirts and suits of the first couple of days were gone, in favor of jeans and pullovers. Even after all these years, I’m still a little surprised by that. More...
