Abstract: During this interactive two-hour workshop session, participants will learn how to use the Teacher Inquiry into Student Learning (TISL) Heart Method to address a wicked problem in distance learning: student camera use during synchronous meetings. The TISL Heart Method can be applied to diverse and multiple wicked problems that educators may encounter while teaching in a pandemic. Empathy-building is one of the first steps educators must make when seeking to embody and enact more humanistic, equitable, and socially just pedagogies.
