SUMMARY:Asking Questions to Improve Learning
DESCRIPTION:Asking questions during class can promote student engagement\, foster reflection\, and serve as real-time feedback to both students and instructors about where students are at in their learning. However\, not all questions are created equally\, and not all questioning strategies are effective. This workshop will explore varied question types that instructors might pose\, as well as strategies for sequencing questions so that they best support and encourage student learning. This workshop will also provide strategies for responding effectively to student answers. \nFor questions about this event\, please contact Dr. Lisa Kuehne\, Assistant Director for Graduate Student and Postdoc Programs. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Fostering an Inclusive Classroom Climate
DESCRIPTION:While the classroom can be a space for open\, respectful dialogue\, it can also feel isolating or even hostile for student learners. What can an instructor do to promote a space for positive\, fruitful collaboration? What does it take to create a truly inclusive classroom climate? In this workshop\, participants will discuss a series of interconnected factors that shape classroom climate. Participants will also have the opportunity to consider ways to repair a fractured classroom climate. Finally\, we will examine strategies for developing a classroom culture in which students feel heard\, welcomed\, and valued. \nIf you have questions about this workshop\, please contact Dr. Elina Salminen.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Pedagogical Scholarship
DESCRIPTION:So\, you may have 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. \n  \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Teaching What You Don’t Know
DESCRIPTION:Oftentimes\, in our AI teaching responsibilities or early teaching careers\, we may be called upon to teach content outside of our area of expertise. Maybe you are an ecologist assisting a microbiology course for the first time. Or a you are a literature scholar teaching writing for the first time. These teaching opportunities can be very exciting and cause a certain amount of uncertainty and anxiety. “What if students ask me a question I can’t answer?” “How do I maintain authority and confidence in the classroom space?”  This Foundations in Teaching workshop will draw from the ideas of Therese Huston in her book Teaching What You Don’t Know and highlight teaching strategies to help you maximize every teaching opportunity. \nFor questions about this event\, contact Dr. Eric Fournier\, Director of Educational Development. \n  \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Applying Principles of Learning Sciences to Your Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Understanding how students learn is an important part of being an effective instructor. In this workshop\, participants will examine how to translate three principles from learning sciences to their teaching: 1) testing effect —deliberately retrieving information from memory\, 2) conceptual change — identifying and reconstructing one’s conceptions\, and 3) scaffolding —incrementally removing supports to build skills. We will consider ways to apply these principles to designing the structure of a course\, implementing in-class activities\, and creating homework assignments. \n  \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Jump-Start to Writing a Teaching Philosophy Statement Peer Writing Program Fall 2023
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 Thursday afternoons Sept 7th – Sept 28th 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 workshop prior to the beginning of the program. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Teaching Students How to Read and Critically Evaluate Scientific Literature
DESCRIPTION:Learning how to critically read and interpret scientific literature is an important skill for students to gain in their education and necessary for their continued success in STEM fields. However\, as instructors\, we must recognize that this is a new kind of writing that students may be unfamiliar reading or evaluating. In this workshop\, we will discuss strategies to scaffold student learning including technology to help students learn to annotate as they read\, in-class activities to help students build critical reading skills\, and individual and group assignments to help students learn to read and understand scientific literature. \nFor questions about this STEM Pedagogies Workshop\, contact Dr. Denise Leonard\, Associate Director for Graduate Student and Postdoc Programs. \nThis workshop is at capacity and registration is now closed. \n
