  2. Opinion | 4 Steps to Help Your Students Read Like Scientists

    “As faculty members, we can’t control the accuracy of media coverage of our research,” writes Kristi Rudenga, director of Notre Dame Learning’s Kaneb Center for Teaching Excellence. “But we can teach our students how to read and understand scientific literature, so that when they talk about science—in their coursework or on social media—they do so correctly.”

  3. Opinion | How to Convince More Readers That Your Ideas Matter

    “Expanding your readership usually means expanding yourself as a writer, and that includes playing with both structure and evidence,” writes Jim Lang, a professor of the practice in Notre Dame Learning’s Kaneb Center for Teaching Excellence. “You don’t have to write experimental novels about your scholarship or abandon traditional forms of evidence in your discipline. Just approach the work of writing as you approach your teaching: with a willingness to experiment, learn, and grow in the service of your learners.”
