Ultimate Collection of Go-to Faculty Resources with Danielle Hinton

Welcome to Episode 73 of the Think UDL podcast: Ultimate Collection of Go-to Faculty Resources with Danielle Hinton. Danielle Hinton is an Educational Developer at the University of Birmingham’s Higher Education Futures Institute in the United Kingdom. She collects, collates, and curates teaching and learning resources like no one I have ever known! I have been following her fantastic Twitter superthreads that run the gamut on topics including assessment, the hidden curriculum, inclusive teaching resources, imposter syndrome, signature pedagogies, games, icebreakers, and many, many more. For each one of these threads, Danielle provides multiple options and resources to give us a full and nuanced understanding of the topic. Recently she led me to the Active Learning Cookbook which had me diving into a variety of resources and as I was happily scurrying down a few rabbit holes, I decided I just had to reach out to talk to her. In today’s conversation, we talk about these fantastic resources Danielle has curated and what they can do for you. We also discuss what it’s like to be an educational or faculty developer (the title changes a little by country, but the work of inspiring and supporting faculty in their teaching, research, and academic and life success remains the same). All of the resources we mention in today’s episode are listed on episode 73 of the ThinkUDL.org website. If you are a faculty member or support faculty, or just like faculty, then this episode is for you!
