‘The Department’ Podcast

‘The Department’ podcast was first launched in February 2020 with Phillip Primeau and William Flynn as co-hosts. It is funded by the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Carleton and focuses on the pedagogical, intellectual and social life of our students and faculty.

‘The Department’ podcast explores issues and topics related to teaching and learning, both inside and outside the classroom and features engaging interviews and conversations with educators and students.

‘The Department’ podcast originally emerged from the past success of ‘Semi-Intellectual Musings’, a social science and educational podcast produced and co-hosted by Phillip Primeau, as well as from the growing culture of multimedia pedagogy within our department.
