SUMMARY:Scaffolding Students’ Success as Independent Learners: Developing Instructional Materials Using Self-Regulated Learning Principles
DESCRIPTION:Gain practical skills to scaffold students’ development as independent learners using principles from self-regulated learning. This framework is goal-directed\, and emphasizes the active role students can take in guiding their learning. Students’ implementation of these skills has been linked to many adaptive and positive academic outcomes. In this workshop\, participants will explore practical methods to embed the teaching of self-regulated learning skills into their regular instruction\, and learn how to feel more confident in their ability to design instructional materials that can help students take the initiative to plan\, direct\, and reflect on their own learning processes. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to: \n\nArticulate the value of self-regulated learning processes (i.e.\, planning\, monitoring/control\, and reflection) in promoting student success\nDesign instructional materials to support students in developing disciplinary-based self-regulated learning skills\n\nInstructors\nAugust Masonheimer\, Purdue University\nErin Mercurio\, The Ohio State University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis two-part online workshop meets in Zoom on Monday\, October 20th at 7-9pm Gulf / 11am-1pm Eastern / 10am-12pm Central / 8-10am Pacific/Arizona and Monday\, November 3rd at 8-10pm Gulf / 11am-1pm Eastern / 10am-12pm Central / 9-11am Arizona / 8-10am Pacific. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed for participants with teaching experience who want to develop practical skills and instructional materials that help students reflect on their own learning processes. \nRegistration and Enrollment\n**At capacity and closed for registration as of Thursday\, October 16th** \nCap: 40. Registration will be processed on a first-come\, first-served basis and registrants from CIRTL member institutions or alumni of CIRTL member institutions will receive priority. Once registration closes\, all registrants will be notified of their enrollment status. \nAccessibility\nIf you have access needs\, please let us know what they are. Contact Zoe Zuleger (zmzuleger@wisc.edu) who is supporting this workshop\, to let us know how we can help you have a successful experience. In addition to meeting individualized needs\, we will also take measures throughout the workshop to support accessibility for all our students: \n\nSending pre-session reminders with upcoming assignments to all students\nSharing materials for synchronous sessions with students (slides\, activity instructions\, etc.)\nEnabling live captioning in synchronous sessions\nIncorporating multiple modes of interaction into synchronous sessions\n\n\nAbout CIRTL Programming\nCIRTL Network programming is designed to develop future faculty committed to implementing and advancing evidence-based teaching practices to create undergraduate educational experiences that are accessible to all learners. Participants can explore our programming in any order\, and to whatever extent supports your own teaching development needs and interests. To help participants understand what they can expect across all our programming\, all CIRTL programming aligns with four broad learning goals; within those goals\, programming might provide participants with an introductory\, intermediate\, or advanced learning experience. \nThis course supports the following CIRTL learning goals at an introductory level: \n\nGoal 1: Develop evidence-based teaching knowledge. See more Goal 1 programming.\nGoal 3: Cultivate teaching skills through reflective improvement. See more Goal 3 programming.

SUMMARY:Examining and Analyzing Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy in Post-Secondary Contexts
DESCRIPTION:In the current U.S. political climate\, where diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives face increasing scrutiny and legislative challenges\, learning about culturally sustaining pedagogy (CSP) is more crucial than ever. Participants will learn the importance of using instructional strategies that affirm and sustain the cultural and linguistic identities of diverse students and how to foster a dynamic learning environment using CSP principles. Through collaboration and discussion\, participants will identify and apply these principles as well as reflect on their own cultural identities and biases\, challenge dominant narratives\, and promote critical thinking in their classrooms. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nIdentify How CSP supports teaching and learning in higher education\nApply CSP principles to participant’s discipline or field of study\nDifferentiate Between CSP and Non-CSP practices in teaching and learning\nPlan one or more course-related materials or activities using CSP principles\n\nInstructors\nNakisha Whittington\, Stanford University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session workshop meets online in Zoom on Tuesday\, November 11th at 8-10pm Gulf / 11am-1pm Eastern / 10am-12pm Central / 9-11am Arizona / 8-10am Pacific. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students at any stage in their career who want to learn more about engaging and transformative ways to teach. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nREGISTER NOW \nCap: 25. Registration will be processed on a first-come\, first-served basis and registrants from CIRTL member institutions or alumni of CIRTL member institutions will receive priority.

SUMMARY:Leveraging Strengths of Neurodiverse Students in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Many times the discussion around learning and neurodiversity is deficit based. While it is important to consider the very real learning challenges that many neurodiverse students face in higher education\, it is equally critical to highlight the numerous strengths associated with different neurotypes such as ADHD\, learning disabilities\, autism\, mental health challenges and consider ways to help students leverage strengths for learning. This workshop will provide participants with an overview of neurodiversity and explore what a strength based and neuroaffirming perspective entails. Participants will consider how learning environments can interact with neurodiversity to mobilize strengths or heighten challenges\, and explore neuro-affirming instructional strategies to lower unintentional barriers to learning. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nDescribe the tenets of a neurodiversity affirming paradigm and some neurodiversity related strengths and challenges\nIdentify some neuro-affirming instructional strategies that can help to mobilize neurodiversity-related strengths and lower learning barriers\nAnalyze your current instructional approach for neuro-affirming strategies that you currently utilizing or could integrate into your teaching\n\nInstructors\nMelissa Tamas\, Stanford University\nSavannah Pham\, Stanford University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session workshop meets online in Zoom on Thursday\, November 20th at 11pm-12:30am Gulf / 2-3:30pm Eastern / 1-2:30pm Central / 12-1:30pm Arizona / 11am-12:30pm Pacific. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral instructors who want to shine a light on the strengths of neurodiversity and consider ways to mobilize it for learning. No previous experience with neurodiversity is required. \nRegistration and Enrollment\n**Registration closed on Thursday\, November 20th** \nRegistration will be processed on a first-come\, first-served basis and registrants from CIRTL member institutions or alumni of CIRTL member institutions will receive priority.
