Fall Faculty Groups “Teaser” Session
Wednesday, August 31, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
FreeIf you enjoy meeting with faculty colleagues for discussion and exploration of teaching ideas, you might be interested in participating in one of several faculty groups hosted by the CTL and/or WID this fall.
In this short “teaser” session we’ll briefly introduce the following groups:
Course/curriculum design groups:
Alt Grading: Explore non-traditional options for giving feedback, promoting student reflection, and increasing student engagement. These alternative methods of assessment will help students set goals for their own learning in your course. (Commitment = 1 semester, ~4-6 sessions)
TILT: Share assignments with colleagues and use a structured framework that increases student success for creating transparency about your assignment’s requirements and standards. (Commitment: ~6 Teams meetings for peer feedback sessions over 1 semester.)
Book group:
Asao Inoue’s Above the Well: upend your assumptions about “good” language use and engage with a call to do anti-racist work around language on campus, in your classrooms, and beyond. (Commitment: 4 meetings in the fall)
Peer reflection and support group:
Reflective Practice in Community: (GTA group and Faculty group) Build community with a small group (~4 people) throughout the semester. Groups will use guided written reflection prompts, with time for conversations about the reflective process and new insights gained as a result of this important work.
Research group:
Scholarship of Teaching and Learning: Develop your teaching related research ideas with colleagues from across campus. We will meet as a group to share ideas, progress and work together to support the research process in community.
If you’re interested in joining a group but can’t attend this session, just let us know. Meetings are scheduled around participants’ availability.
This session facilitated by Susanmarie Harrington, Director of the Center for Teaching & Learning and Writing in the Disciplines, and Jen Garrett-Ostermiller and Holly Parker, CTL Educational Developers.
You will receive a Microsoft Teams calendar invitation the afternoon prior to your event explaining how to join and participate in the meeting. If you click “accept,” it will populate on your Teams calendar for easy access!
