about the podcast
Did you know that each year, the US publishes almost 1 million new books? It would be impossible for any one person to stay on top of this volume of information. Luckily, The Book Club For Busy Lives is here to help! In this multi-part podcast, we explore one book at a time pertaining to inclusive teaching practices in higher education.
We listen in as educators and guests analyze specific facets of our spotlighted book, and discuss how it relates to real-world applications within their own lives and teaching practices.
