Center for Innovation in Teaching & Learning

Join us online on the first Thursdays of the month from 12pm - 1pm as we welcome new faculty, new stories, and new ways of thinking about the art of teaching.

Most teachers get evaluated by their students at the end of the course by implementing ICES. But by then, it is too late to make changes that will make a difference for your current students. Come to this workshop to learn how to design, implement, and interpret Informal Early Feedback (IEF) to improve the class experience for everyone.

Reflecting and implementing what you have learned from informal (such as the Informal Early Feedback - IEF) and formal (such as ICES) student feedback is a valuable process. we will share how to maximize gathering and analyzing the formal and informal student feedback. (And come back to CITL for consultation!)

This book outlines practical and feasible applications of theoretical principles to help your online students learn. It includes current best practices around educational technologies, strategies to build community and collaboration, and minor changes you can make in your online teaching practice, small but impactful adjustments that result in significant learning gains.

Many instructors have implemented long-term team projects in their courses. There are many benefits derived from this experience; however, these experiences may not be optimal because the students (and faculty…) were not adequately prepared. Join us to learn the what, how, and why of great team projects.

In this session, Lucas will use a simple technique for running good discussions to run a good discussion about running good discussions (it will be a meta-discussion). We will occasionally pause to examine the very discussion we are having and hence learn how to make a discussion go well.

A syllabus is more than a contract or a schedule and listing of topics. What is the message and first impression? Take a moment to think about your course: is it welcoming, supportive, fair? This is a great opportunity to think about how/if your syllabus promotes a learning-centered environment.
