This episode of Podagogies is an exploration of care, from showing care for students in our classes to how instructors can ensure their own care needs are met. Dr. May Friedman and Fiona Cheuk from Toronto Metropolitan University share their approaches to navigating this complicated balance.
May Friedman is a professor at Toronto Metropolitan University. Much of May’s work explores issues of fat activism and weight stigma in many different settings. Drawing from her own experiences as a fat racialized mother, May looks at unstable identities, including bodies that do not conform to traditional racial and national or aesthetic lines.
Fiona Ning Cheuk (they/them) is a gender neutral lecturer at the School of Disability Studies. Their pedagogical practices are informed by their continuous nurturing by queer, disabled, BIPOC community wisdom on how to survive and build resilient futures within academia.

Navigating Artificial Intelligence in the Classroom
Ready or not, Artificial Intelligence is part of our classrooms, and we can only begin to predict its impact on learning and teaching in higher education. In this episode, we chat pedagogy, academic integrity, and AI anxiety with Dr. Lai-Tze Fan, Dr. Jan Frijters, and Allyson Miller.
Guest Speaker Bios:
Lai-Tze Fan's general research and teaching interests include interactive and digital storytelling, research-creation and critical making projects, systemic biases in technological design, media archaeology, the Anthropocene and sustainability, digital and “smart” culture, critical infrastructure studies, and the digital humanities.
In academic governance, they focus on fostering spaces of knowledge exchange and advocacy, especially through community collaboration. They serve as: an Editor and the Director of Communications for electronic book review, one of the oldest academic journals on the Internet; Co-Editor of the digital review; Advisory Board Member of McMaster University’s Centre for Networked Media and Performance (CNMAP); and member of the Steering Committee of MediArXiv: The Open Archive for Media, Film, & Communication Studies, among other positions.
Dr. Jan C. Frijters is a developmental and educational psychologist who divides his academic appointment between Brock University’s Department of Child and Youth Studies and Department of Applied Disability Studies. His research focuses on evaluating outcomes for reading interventions, along with more basic research into the genetic and brain dynamics involved in acquiring reading skill. His teaching focus is split between disabilities and quantitative methodology, including statistical applications in education and developmental psychology.
Allyson Miller is an Academic Integrity Specialist in the Office of the Vice Provost, Academic. With over a decade of experience supporting faculty instruction and student success, her passion for academic integrity stems from her deep belief in the value of learning.
