SUMMARY:Background Knowledge Probes as Classroom Assessment Technique
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an interactive conversation on the use of Background Knowledge Probes (BKPs) as an effective classroom assessment technique. BKPs can be useful tools for quickly identifying students’ familiarity with a specific concept—​helping teachers to make informed decisions about where they should focus their instruction. In this session\, we’ll look at samples of classroom-tested BKPs and discuss best practices for integrating these probes into our courses. \nTo celebrate the release of an updated version of Classroom Assessment Techniques by Thomas Angelo and Pat Cross\, the CTL will be offering a series of short\, 30-minute Virtual Conversations—each focused on one or two of these classroom assessment techniques (CATs). The sessions will introduce the CATs\, share recommendations for use\, provide step-by-step examples\, and offer ideas for modifying and expanding them. \nRegistration\nRegistration for this event has closed. Please contact Natalie Monzyk with questions.

SUMMARY:Supporting First Generation and Low Income Students in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Melissa Osborne\nPlease note the correct date for this event is Wednesday\, October 2nd. An earlier email announcement contained an error.  \nToday\, one quarter of WashU’s current first-year class is low income and nearly one in five is first generation\, which represents a dramatic three-fold increase over the last ten years. What does this change mean for us as instructors\, and what can we do to help these talented students thrive? In this hour-long workshop we will discuss common experiences of first generation and low income students while exploring concreate\, simple-to-implement strategies to support them in the classroom and beyond. \nThis workshop is facilitated by staff from the Center for Teaching and Learning and the Office of the Provost\, along with special guest Dr. Melissa Osborne\, author of Polished: College\, Class\, and the Burdens of Social Mobility. Space is limited. \nThis event is sponsored by Here & Next. \nIf you have any questions\, please contact Rick Moore\, Associate Director of Faculty Programming. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Polished: College\, Class\, and the Burdens of Social Mobility
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Melissa Osborne\nWashU is pleased to welcome Dr. Melissa Osborne\, Associate Professor of Sociology at Western Washington University\, to our campus to speak about first-generation and low-income students. A reception will follow Dr. Osborne’s presentation. \nPolished: College\, Class\, and the Burdens of Social Mobility\nFor low-income and first-generation students at elite schools\, college can feel like entering a whole new world. Along with academic and financial challenges\, their emotional lives also shift as they navigate different cultural and class backgrounds. These students often face a difficult choice: blend in with their peers and abandon their former lives\, or stay true to themselves\, risking isolation from other students. In this talk\, Melissa Osborne\, PhD will share insights from their book Polished\, based on interviews and ethnographic fieldwork with 150 first-generation and low-income students at 18 selective colleges and universities. Osborne reveals how the support systems meant to help these students can unintentionally reshape their identities\, often creating tension between their aspirations and their connections to family and community. Without direct institutional support\, this emotional struggle can lead to feelings of alienation\, mental health challenges\, and difficult decisions about balancing upward mobility with authenticity. \nThis event is sponsored by Here & Next. \nFor further details and registration\, please see the event listing in Happenings at WashU or contact Máire Murphy\, Project Coordinator\, Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Fall 2024 Faculty Reading Community (FRC)
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow faculty and CTL staff for sustained cross-disciplinary conversation on critical topics in teaching and learning. \nThe Faculty Reading Community discussions in Fall 2024 will involve chapters from Kevin Gannon’s book Radical Hope: A Teaching Manifesto. We are revisiting this popular 2020 book in order to facilitate conversations on the nature of teaching during the current social and political moment. Gannon argues that teaching is by definition emancipatory and hopeful. Taking this axiom as our starting point\, how can maximize our positive impact on our students in the classroom? \nParticipants are required to attend 4 of 5 meetings. Faculty will receive a copy of the book courtesy of the CTL. Seats are limited. \nMeeting Mode: This semester’s faculty reading community will meet in person on the Danforth campus (DUC 248).  \nMeetings will be from noon-12:50pm on the following Thursdays:\n\n\nSept 19: Chapters 1-2 (Classrooms of Death; The Things We Tell Our Students)\n\n\nOct 10: Chapters 3-4 (Cultivating Transformative Teaching; Teaching & Learning Inclusively)\n\n\nOct 17: Chapters 5-6 (Making Access Mean Something; Encouraging Choice\, Collaboration\, and Agency)\n\n\nOct 31: Chapters 7-8 (A Syllabus Worth Reading; Pedagogy Is Not A Weapon)\n\n\nNov 21: Chapters 9-10 (Platforms and Power; I Don’t Know . . . Yet.)\n\n\nThe reading community will be co-facilitated by Rick Moore\, along with faculty member Sabnam Ghosh. \nFor questions about the Faculty Reading Community\, please contact Dr. Rick Moore at rick.moore@wustl.edu. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:The Enduring Power of the Minute Paper
DESCRIPTION:In this virtual conversation we will explore the history and impact of minute papers—brief responses that ask students to reflect on what was most important in class and what questions they still have.  We will explore how these can be employed in a variety of class settings as a low effort/high impact way to assess student learning. \nFor questions about this event\, contact Eric Fournier. \nNote new time of 10:30a.

SUMMARY:Teaching & Learning in the Age of Generative AI
DESCRIPTION:With the advent of easy-to-use artificial intelligence (AI) text generation tools like ChatGPT\, educators must grapple with what these technologies mean for their course and assignment designs. In this practical session with noted author and faculty developer Derek Bruff\, we will briefly survey the landscape of AI tools for generating text and other media\, then dive into the teaching choices they present. What changes do we need to make to our learning objectives\, if any\, in light of ChatGPT and other AI tools? How can we design assignments that either leverage or minimize AI tools to meet those learning objectives? This session will feature teaching principles and examples of practice to help answer these questions as the AI landscape continues to change. \nFor questions about this event\, contact Eric Fournier. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:AI in Writing-based Courses
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 instructors who teach courses where students frequently write – whether it’s final papers\, short reflections\, or discussion forum posts. \nWe’ll start with a discussion of why writing matters in our courses. From there we’ll share 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. \nFor questions about this event\, contact Elina Salminen. \n  \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Teaching in Turbulent Times
DESCRIPTION:Teaching during times of conflict and crisis isn’t easy. Events such as the war in Gaza\, campus protests\, the U.S. election cycle\, and others can readily overshadow coursework. What can you do when events in the world intrude on events in the classroom? What are some strategies to support students while keeping your course on track? How can you do all of this and still take care of yourself? \nIn this workshop\, we’ll discuss strategies for responding to current events in the classroom regardless of the subject of your course. Participants will come away from the event with concrete ideas they can use no matter what outside challenges upcoming semesters might bring. \nFor questions about this event\, contact Rick Moore. \nPlease note that this workshop will take place in person on the Danforth Campus. \nRegistration
