SUMMARY:Facilitating Engaging Discussions
DESCRIPTION:While as instructors we hope to engage student learners\, facilitating a true discussion in the classroom is one of the most challenging aspects of teaching with active learning. In this workshop\, participants will consider the benefits of discussion as a pedagogical methodology\, examine strategies for structuring a successful\, inclusive discussion\, and consider ways to move beyond instructor-student-instructor patterns of response. Participants will also review a variety of question types and discussion structures that are likely to spur different kinds of productive student engagement. Finally\, we will address some common challenges that can sink classroom discussions. \nFor questions about this Humanities\, Arts\, Social Sciences workshop*\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory\, Associate Director for Faculty Programs. \n*Some workshops will take place via Zoom in Spring 2023. For Zoom workshops\, the link to the Zoom session will be sent out with the reminder email the day before the workshop.

SUMMARY:Incorporating Active Learning in Lectures
DESCRIPTION:Active learning has been defined as learning that engages students in the process of learning through activities and/or discussion in class\, as opposed to passively listening to an expert. It emphasizes higher-order thinking and often involves group work. Research overwhelmingly supports the shift from passive learning environments to more active ones\, however this transformation can be difficult to envision in large STEM lecture courses. Participants in this workshop will learn evidence-based strategies to make lectures a more active learning environment. \nFor questions about this workshop\, contact Dr. Lisa Kuehne\, Assistant Director for Graduate Student and Postdoc Programs. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Preparing and Delivering a Teaching Demo
DESCRIPTION:A campus visit invitation from a search committee is welcome news\, but it often comes with a challenging request for a “teaching talk” or “teaching demo.” In this workshop\, participants will discuss what makes an effective teaching demonstration that is aligned with other teaching-related job market materials. Participants will learn questions to ask the institution before the visit\, how to design a talk that is appropriate for each audience and purpose\, and how to include student interaction and other methods of demonstrating your effectiveness as an instructor. \nAll workshops in this series will take place via Zoom in Spring 2023. A link to the Zoom session will be sent out with the reminder email the day before the workshop. This series is only open to advanced graduate students (PhD students in their third year or beyond or 2nd years in terminal MFA/MS programs) and postdocs. \nFor questions about this job market workshop\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegistration\nRegistration for this workshop has now closed. If you would still like to participate\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Pedagogical Scholarship
DESCRIPTION:So\, you’ve heard the terms scholarly teaching\, SoTL\, TAR\, and DBER\, but what do they mean? How are they related? In this workshop for graduate students and postdocs\, we will define various modes of pedagogical research and discuss similarities and differences between them. Participants will also learn about qualitative and quantitative approaches to pedagogical research as well as about strategies to become more involved in pedagogical scholarship in their classroom. \nNote that while this workshop is part of the STEM pedagogies series\, anyone interested in doing SoTL research or possibly participating in the SoTL seminar is welcome! \nFor questions about this workshop\, contact Dr. Lisa Kuehne\, Assistant Director for Graduate Student and Postdoc Programs. \nRegister here\n\nThe registration has now closed.

SUMMARY:Incorporating Active Learning During Class Time
DESCRIPTION:Research overwhelmingly supports the idea that active learning\, “opportunities for students to meaningfully talk and listen\, write\, read\, and reflect on the content\, ideas\, issues\, and concerns of an academic subject” leads to greater learning gains than methods of teaching that situate students as passive receptors of knowledge (Meyer & Jones\, 1993). Yet sometimes factors like course content\, class size\, and student readiness lend themselves to more traditional methods like lecture. In this workshop\, participants will examine the research related to active learning in the humanities\, arts\, and social sciences\, and discuss how to incorporate active learning strategies effectively into their courses. \nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegister Here\nRegistration for this workshop has now closed. If you would still like to participate\, please contact Dr. Gregory for the Zoom link. \n

SUMMARY:Efficient\, Reflective and Effective Strategies for Grading
DESCRIPTION:Evaluating student work\, particularly for large classes or long assignments\, requires time and effort. Graduate students and postdocs can benefit from adopting efficient strategies that help to ensure fair application of points while making good use of their time. Grading can further be a reflective activity that provides feedback to the grader about student comprehension\, which can then be used to inform future interactions with students and faculty. Grading is also an effective tool for guiding students to deeper understanding through thoughtful\, targeted feedback on their effort. \nIn this workshop\, participants will work together to explore various grading strategies while also discussing other aspects of assessing student work\, such as communicating with faculty about grading criteria and policy\, achieving consistency during grading and responding to common student concerns about grades. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:Inclusive Teaching in STEM: Creating a Sense of Belonging in Your Classroom
DESCRIPTION:“Do I belong here?” Oftentimes\, this is the first question students ask themselves when they are in new and unfamiliar academic environments. Students’ answers to this question are critical because welcoming learning experiences in the classroom can encourage students to persist in their STEM majors and bolster their science identities. In this workshop\, we will discuss evidence-based strategies that can foster student belonging in STEM college classrooms.   \nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Denise Leonard.  \n\n

SUMMARY:Writing a Diversity and Inclusion Statement for the Job Market
DESCRIPTION:Increasingly\, candidates for academic positions are asked to address their commitment to diversity\, inclusion\, and equity (DEI) in the classroom in their job market materials. In this workshop\, we will explore how to communicate this commitment effectively. Participants will examine the purpose of a DEI statement\, identify generic expectations and conventions of the statement\, learn about how this statement can complement other job market documents\, and discuss strategies for demonstrating a clearly defined commitment to diversity\, inclusion\, and equity. \nWorkshops in this series are only open to postdocs and graduate students in their third year and beyond. If you need the workshop sooner than that\, for example because you are in a terminal 3-year program\, please email Dr. Gregory to register. \nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegister Here\nRegistration has now closed. If you would still like to participate\, please email Meg at meggregory@wustl.edu

SUMMARY:Navigating Difficult Conversations in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:While the classroom can be a space for open\, respectful discussion of sensitive or controversial topics\, facilitating such discussions can be a challenging prospect. This advanced-level workshop for graduate students and postdocs in the humanities\, arts\, and social sciences will provide the opportunity for participants to develop strategies for fostering critical thinking\, open-mindedness\, and civil discourse in the classroom. Participants will engage with strategies for laying the groundwork necessary for having difficult conversations\, learn approaches for responding to unexpectedly tense moments\, and practice applying the strategies we discuss to common instructional situations. \nThis workshop will be in person on the Danforth Campus. If you need medical or other accommodations to participate virtually\, please let Dr. Gregory know. \nNote: This workshop was formerly entitled Facilitating Challenging Conversations. \nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Meg Gregory. \nRegister Here\nPre-registration is now closed. If you would still like to participate\, please email Dr. Meg Gregory at meggregory@wustl.edu. \n
