On Friday, April 12, 2019, Emily Johnson (History), Douglas Seefeldt (History), and Deborah Mix (English) teamed up to participate in the Iron Chef Pedagogy competition as part of the Ball State University Provost Faculty Summit.

Combining the concepts of popular TV chef battles, such as Iron Chef and Chopped, faculty teams from across campus formed to see who could create the best “recipe” for teaching and learning challenges. Each team received a theme (main ingredient) – a teaching and learning scenario to explore in the classroom that was complicated with “secret ingredients” (instructional technology tools).

While our team didn’t win, we did have fun participating!
