Bonni Stachowiak, the host of the podcast Teaching in Higher Ed, has written this wonderful book on educator productivity. It is a guide for online instructors who wish to have a greater impact without burning out.
The book focuses on five key areas:
- Translating Intention into Action
- Facilitating Communication
- Finding, Curating, and Sharing knowledge
- Leveraging Technology Toward Greater Productivity
- Keeping Current
In this episode, I review the book by touching upon the highlights of each area. It is certainly a book that should be in your library. I definitely think that all educators could benefit from reading The Productive Online and Offline Professor.
