Kristina Gielow (Brower)
In this episode, I sit with Kristina Gielow, a Cañada College alumna who returned to campus as a tenured professor and Early Childhood Education Program Coordinator after earning her master's in educational leadership. Kristina shares how her involvement with the Faculty Learning Program (FLP) helped her transform traditional lectures into engaging, student-led activities like cooperative jigsaws and classroom games. Tune in as she discusses her teaching journey and how FLP's collaborative framework continues to shape her approach to leadership, peer mentoring, and course design.
