MANHATTAN — Jason Bergtold is turning the challenge of teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic into an opportunity to help his students and his fellow faculty members at Kansas State University.
As K-State's 2021-2022 Coffman Chair for University Distinguished Teaching Scholars, the professor of agricultural economics will spend the next year studying how new teaching platforms, styles and techniques for remote and hybrid teaching that he and his fellow faculty members adopted because of the pandemic will impact teaching and learning into the future. He plans to share what he learns during a series of workshops on teaching scholarship.
