Dr. Kekoa Kaluhiokalani’s Shares 4-Point Pledge with Students to Maximize Online Learning
Dr. Kekoa Kaluhiokalani, Associate Professor of English and Coordinator of Arts and Humanities Study Abroad Programs, has made a four-point pledge to his students:
- I will continue to introduce you to new and challenging things. Despite the long-distance-ness of this current teaching situation, I plan to keep the focus on the wild, wonderful world of the arts and humanities.
- I will shape and continually adjust the assignments to fit the online format. There will be some trial and error, so if anything comes across as weird, let me know and I will fix it.
- I will keep the lines of communication open. I may not be able to answer your emails or DMs immediately, but I will get back to you as soon as I can. Also, let the forums and threads in the Discussion section be the place where you can be a bit more informal and share your observations.
- I am willing to listen. If anything is unclear or throws you off, let me know. I aim to make things understandable. Or if you're feeling unmotivated and grumpy, I am a wealth of unsolicited advice. And if you need recommendations for Netflix series or strongly-held opinions about the amazing-ness of Avatar: The Last Airbender, I have thoughts.
