Workshops

Sessions offered in-person, virtually, or hybridly focused on structured active and experiential learning activities that 1) are relevant to instructors' individual teaching, and 2) develop self-awareness and personal goal setting to enhance teaching practice. The intended outcome of a workshop is for instructors to be able to consider and implement new ideas and skills in their teaching. A workshop may be standalone (i.e., one time) or a series of several standalone workshops linked by topic in an interconnected sequence.

For more information on upcoming workshops, please see our events page.
