SUMMARY:Summer 2025 Faculty Reading Community (FRC)
DESCRIPTION:Join fellow faculty and CTL staff for sustained cross-disciplinary conversation on critical topics in teaching and learning. \nThe featured book for the Summer 2025 Faculty Reading Community will be Elizabeth Norell’s recently published The Present Professor: Authenticity and Transformational Teaching. Amid the current crises of higher education\, this timely book offers much-needed guidance for cutting through the emotional static that can hold teachers back from fully engaging with their students. Norell explains how an educator’s presence\, or authenticity\, can be critical to creating transformational spaces for students. And presence\, she argues\, means uncovering and understanding one’s own internal struggles and buried insecurities—stresses often left unconfronted in an academic culture that values knowing over feeling. Presenting research on how and why such inner work unlocks transformational learning\, The Present Professor equips educators with the tools for crafting a more authentic presence in their teaching work. \nDr. Norrell will join our group for a discussion of her work on June 18. \nParticipants are required to attend 3 of 4 meetings. Faculty will receive a print copy of the book courtesy of the CTL.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Evidence-Based Pedagogy
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a foundational workshop designed to introduce new instructors to select pedagogical tools and techniques commonly used in higher education including backwards design\, zone of proximal development\, active learning and inclusive teaching. Participants will begin the session by familiarizing themselves with terminology and definitions through a review of evidence-based practices for helping undergraduate students learn in the college setting. There will also be time to learn strategies to begin incorporating use of these concepts into future teaching opportunities. \nIf you have questions about this event\, contact Lisa Kuehne. \n  \nRegistration
