we are looking forward to a great day of workshops and discussions on teaching, learning, and professional development issues across the disciplines. the event will begin with a plenary session in which a panel of faculty members discuss how they transcend the four walls of the classroom in their teaching practices, and will feature nancy chick (english), sharon shields (human & organizational development), and barb stengel (teaching & learning). participants then select workshops in three sequential sessions. workshops include:

  • grading efficiently: finding the time to grade fairly
  • flipping the classroom
  • teaching with case studies
  • making discussions safe
  • writing in the stem classroom
  • beyond templates: effective powerpoint design
  • transitioning to professorship: teaching statements and portfolios
  • beyond the ivory tower: alternative and non-academic career choices
  • finding teaching moments in the field: learner-centered field research programs
  • adding spatial dimensions to teaching
  • social pedagogies: motivating students through social media and authentic audiences

graduate student teaching event for professional development (gradstep) is co-sponsored by the graduate student council and the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分.
