The People Who Raised Me Formed My Teaching: Shatavia Wynn
Dialogue on Teaching, Wabash Center’s podcast series, is hosted by Nancy Lynne Westfield, Ph.D., Director of the Wabash Center. Amplifying the Wabash Center’s mission, the podcasts focus upon issues of teaching and learning in theology and religion within colleges, university, seminaries, as well as the publics impacted by these schools. Dialogues with faculty and administrators working in the wide range of institutional contexts illumine the complexity of teaching and the teaching life.
Dr. Shatavia Wynn is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Rhodes College.
Our communities form us, but effort (to say nothing of time and distance) may be required to understand how. Wynn's folks taught through care, deep listening and storytelling. Wynn discusses the realization of just how formative those relationships are to current teaching approaches now and into the future.
