a teaching visit<\/a> involves a small group of faculty who observe a colleague\u2019s class (on a selected day), followed by an hour of conversation about what was observed, particularly shared teaching challenges. the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分 has hosted teaching visits for many years and they have been among the most productive and helpful events we offer. they are wonderful opportunities for vanderbilt teachers to observe directly and then discuss various forms of teaching across the disciplines, building collegiality and expertise around inquiries into teaching and learning.<\/p>\n

psci 100: inbtroduction to american government and politics<\/h4>\n

this course introduces students to the american political system.\u00a0 the primary focus is on the operation of our national government.\u00a0 not only will we examine how the formal institutions of government work, such as the congress, the presidency, and the supreme court, but we will also consider the informal institutions, such as public opinion, political parties, and the mass media.\u00a0 the underlying theme of this course concerns whether the united states is a democracy.\u00a0 this is the \u201cbig\u201d question in the course.\u00a0 most americans just assume we are democratic.\u00a0 certainly our leaders claim we are the greatest democracy in the world and in fact have gone to great efforts to spread our approach to government to other countries.\u00a0 but are we democratic?\u00a0 the answer, as you will see, is open to debate.\u00a0 this class provides, in effect, a chance to have that debate.<\/p>\n

we endeavor to organize visits across the university in various disciplines, but visitors do not have to be in the same discipline as the course they are observing. indeed, many faculty members have found it helpful to encounter teaching styles and strategies different than their own, which they can then discuss with colleagues after the observation and adapt to their own use.<\/span><\/p>\n

if you are interested in hosting a teaching visit or have any other questions about the program, please contact the cft\u2019s cynthia brame.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
