Hello! My name is Francisco J. Aldape, and I’m an adjunct at BMCC teaching economics since 2020. Given the recent world events and turbulent changes in academia, I’ve been trying to learn and adapt new teaching methods to help increase student engagement in class, in addition to learning more about how to design assignments that promote equity/fairness and encourage more community building. I’ve been also considering to adopt a new economics textbook for my class, which was one of the main reasons I was interested to participate in this seminar. After a fantastic first session, I’m very much looking forward to our conversations in the next weeks and be able to know more about all the OER resources available!
