Meet the GSCC 2.0 Coaches
RICHARD PESCARINO (Math)
St. Louis Community College, St. Louis, MOMy approach is more student-centered [since participating in GSCC]. I focus more on connecting with the students and trying to motivate them, rather than just delivering a clear lesson.

Spreading the love through GSCC
While the digital librarians comb through the online communities in Polilogue to capture mention of resources for GSCC’s web-based collection in Diigo and for Pathfinder, an internal database of faculty-generated materials, we eavesdrop on the inspiring discussions. We just had to share these from the Coffee Klatch.
From Kate Smith :
“Hi all. I thought some of you might appreciate the following conversation…”
“After class I had to talk with a student. After we finished our chat he said:
“Miss, you are such a hippie.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, man, yeah . . . you are always spreading the love everywhere through math.”"
and from Rosemary Arca:
“My students are challenging me to continue in my Vinyasa Flow Yoga class, a class I complain to them about for its rigor and pain-inducing speed of poses. They responded: “Aw come on, Ms. Arca, you’re always talking about the value of persistence when things get hard. Show us what you’ve got.” ”
Caring and Persistence in a nutshell.
