SUMMARY:Backward Design
DESCRIPTION:Backward design is a key tool for designing effective learning experiences\, and it’s commonly used across many educational contexts to ensure your day-to-day teaching aligns with your goals. The approach moves from desired outcomes to assignments and activities\, which makes it a powerful framework for centering the key learning you want to see in your class (as opposed to the material that needs to be “covered”). It can be applied to everything from an individual lesson to an entire course. In this workshop\, you’ll learn the basics of the model and then apply it to your own teaching. You’ll write clear learning outcomes\, then draft an assignment based on those goals\, and finally brainstorm some activities that allow your students to practice the skills you want them to master.

SUMMARY:Generative AI in Writing-Based Classes
DESCRIPTION:Generative AI is here to stay\, but it poses some profound questions about how to teach writing-based classes. This “workshop” is intended to be a discussion for graduate students and postdocs who teach courses where students frequently write – whether it’s final papers\, short reflections\, or discussion forum posts. We’ll discuss ideas and strategies for guiding students’ engagement with GenAI\, ranging from assignment design to steer students away from GenAI to assignments that require students to use AI. The workshop facilitator will provide examples of assignments\, but the meeting is intended to be highly collaborative\, with the goal of all participants developing and sharing ideas on this topic that is still new to many of us.

SUMMARY:Planning and Implementing Classroom Assessment Techniques
DESCRIPTION:How do you know whether students are following along during class sessions? In this workshop\, participants will practice implementing four types of classroom assessment techniques in sample scenarios\, then spend some time exploring when to deploy them and how to interpret the results of these assessments for a particular course. Finally\, there will be time for reflection on how to plan to include such techniques in a future course. \nIf you have questions about this event\, please contact Dr. Lisa Kuehne. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Inclusive Teaching: Fostering a Sense of Belonging for Students
DESCRIPTION:“Do I belong here?” \nPeople often ask themselves this question when they are in new or unfamiliar environments. As instructors\, we can take actions to promote a course atmosphere so that students can answer “Yes”. Positive learning experiences during a course can encourage students to persist in their majors and identify as scholars. In this workshop\, we will discuss evidence-based strategies that can foster student belonging in college courses.

SUMMARY:Constructing a Sample Syllabus for the Job Market
DESCRIPTION:For teaching-focused positions\, it is common to be asked for a sample syllabus. In this workshop for graduate students and postdocs approaching the academic job market\, we will consider key aspects of sample syllabi to include\, as well as how to align sample syllabi with the needs of different kinds of positions. Utilizing the principles of backwards design\, we will also discuss where to start when trying to come up with a topics-based course. Note that this is not intended to cover the full course design process\, but is instead specifically for those who must develop a sample syllabus for their job market materials. \n\nFor questions about this workshop\, please contact the facilitator.

SUMMARY:Jump-Start to Writing a Teaching Philosophy Statement Peer Writing Program Spring 2024
DESCRIPTION:If you are applying for an academic position\, it is increasingly likely that you will be asked to submit a teaching philosophy statement during the application process. Yet\, setting aside the time to write your statement and obtaining feedback from colleagues can be challenging with a busy schedule. The Jump-Start to Writing a Teaching Philosophy Statement Peer Writing Program offers the opportunity for advanced graduate students and postdocs to navigate the initial stages of drafting and revising their statements within a structured format and in a supportive environment. \nDuring the program\, participants will examine sample statements\, reflect on their teaching\, and write and revise three drafts of their teaching philosophy statements. Peer writing groups will offer feedback at each stage of the drafting process\, and Center for Teaching and Learning staff will be on hand to answer questions as well. Note that participants need not have a draft of their statement going into the program. \nParticipants must plan to attend all four virtual meetings on Wednesday afternoons May 22nd – June 12th and must also have previously attended the Center for Teaching and Learning’s Writing a Teaching Philosophy Statement workshop. Those who have not taken the workshop previously\, but who wish to participate in Jump-Start should plan to register for and attend the Writing a Teaching Philosophy Statement workshop prior to the beginning of the program. \nRegistration for this program is closed
