We both teach semi-flipped, where students learn foundational material before class to make room for high-value activities such as addressing misconceptions, building intuition, discovery, peer instruction, and deeper reasoning. However, our implementations are different. So, we compare our approaches to prep work, classroom activities, and motivating students to come prepared, all in service of making the most of the limited time we have with students in the classroom.https://csedpodcast.org/blog/s4e12_tpb_meet_the_prof/Mon, 01 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://csedpodcast.org/blog/s4e12_tpb_meet_the_prof/Episode Summary In this teaching practice byte (TPB), we talk to Professor Emeritus William G. Griswold about his teaching practice Meet the Professor, where he has short, small-group meetings with every student in his 200+ student course. Bill originally shared this practice as a SIGCSE Technical Symposium 2024 experience report. In our conversation, we discussed how the practice fosters engagement, why group meetings proved better than one-on-one, how such connections are increasingly valuable as AI tools reduce traditional social interactions, and his latest updates and reflections on the practice since his experience report.
