“Teaching Fails” happen to all of us. There’s even a whole section of Journal of Interactive Technology and Pedagogy devoted to “Teaching Fails.” In this session, panelists talk about their best recovery strategies for when it all goes wrong. We might think of these as “Teaching Saves.” Whether you’re managing discussions on difficult subjects in the classroom, integrating AI into assignments, or trying out something else new—it’s hard to anticipate every turn and how it will go, but these panelists have some generous pedagogies and student-centered approaches that can come in handy. Whether you’re teaching a new course this semester, or one you’ve taught for 20 years, all are welcome as we navigate a new year.
