Discussing the future of higher ed with Bonni Stachowiak, a podcaster who knows the web

Last month (year) (decade!) I was fortunate enough to be interviewed by Bonni Stachowiak.  We talked about all kinds of stuff, from Academia Next to information history and teaching.

Bonnie’s podcast, Teaching in Higher Ed, is fine listening for anyone interested in education.

I’d also like to commend the web publishing side of her podcast practice, because she takes the web seriously.  Check out what she does for this one episode:

On the right she’s taken the time to list and link to things we talked about: books, videos, institutions, my new book, more podcasts, and more.  That requires a lot of work, hunting down twenty-one+ references.

On the left Bonnie created a slide with something I said that she liked.  That’s really sweet and beyond the call of duty.

And on the top, did you catch the transcript link?  Yes, Bonnie posted a text version of the discussion.  That’s almost nine thousand words.  It’s a 17 page pdf – and I know this because you can download the transcript.  How many podcasters take this kind of step towards accessibility?

Taken together, this kind of web work is far beyond a syndicated mp3 file.  Bonnie takes the web seriously and with great generosity.  For that and for inviting me to her program, she has my thanks and admiration.
