What defines a great professor? "Playing in the Sandbox: Conversations in Pedagogy" is a podcast series that answers this question with one word: play. Most will agree that the best professors and instructors of higher education are those who promote (and exemplify) passion, curiosity, exploration, experimentation, and the willingness to fail and try again. In other words, as this podcast argues, the best professors are those who meaningfully and thoughtfully play.

In this episode, The Collaborative hosts Dr. Katherine Troyer (Assistant Director) and Dr. Lauren Malone (Academic Technologist) explore how our lectures can become something that students don't just tolerate but are actually excited to experience in our courses.
