Best of “Higher Ed:” Learning and Doubt

By: Jennifer Stayton

Doubt. It can make us question some of our deeply-held beliefs. But is that necessarily a bad thing? In this “Best Of…” episode of KUT’s podcast Higher Ed, KUT’s Jennifer Stayton and Southwestern University President Dr. Ed Burger talk about the value that doubt can have for our learning and education. Doubt can be a catalyst for expanding our thinking and is an important element in life long learning. So says Ed in this episode. He and Jen also discuss cats, dogs, beets, and doubt. Yes, it all relates! And listen on to find out if the solution to a recent puzzler will rain on your parade.

This “Best Of…” episode was recorded on November 18, 2015 and originally released on December 20, 2015.
