SEASON 2, EPISODE 8
Talking it out, deliberative dialogue in higher education
Co-Hosts Emily Shields and Andrew Seligsohn sit down with author and scholar Timothy Shaffer about his work and research in deliberative dialogue, including his new book “Deliberative Pedagogy: Teaching and Learning for Democratic Engagement.” They discuss what it really takes to embed dialogue in campus and community work and some ideas for making it more effective. They also take a detour from the usual pop culture conversation to review Thanksgiving traditions, including Andrew’s recipe for turkey that doesn’t suck.
