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.

SUMMARY:Shared Voices\, Shared Decisions: Sociocracy for Educators and Leaders in Higher Ed
DESCRIPTION:University structure/governance varies little across the world and has changed little in basic form across time. It is\, at its essence\, deeply colonial and Western\, characterized by a hierarchical distribution of power. However\, as the world changes rapidly around us\, there is a growing need to authentically include the diverse voices of stakeholders (i.e.\, staff and students) in the decisions that affect their work\, learning\, and wellbeing. This course presents a shared governance model\, “Sociocracy”\, that stresses inclusion and deliberate attention to power dynamics. Based on consent and not consensus\, sociocracy operates at scales from small groups to entire organizations. Participants will explore connections among governance/decision-making\, power structures\, and participatory equity in higher education. They will explore sociocracy as a model for fostering shared decision-making in classrooms\, committees\, departments\, and other academic spaces\, and generate actionable plans to improve power dynamics and advance equity and inclusion in their own contexts. By the end of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify relationships\, power structures\, and/or gaps in participatory equity in governance at their home institution.\nDefine\, explain\, and justify the use of Sociocracy as a viable governance model at multiple levels or scales.\nExplain the significance of sociocratic structures and processes.\nDesign sociocratic structures at levels or scales relevant to their local contexts.\n\nThe course will also prepare participants to apply practical strategies that foster more equitable\, inclusive\, and participatory forms of leadership. These approaches are adaptable to a wide range of settings and contexts. Participants will learn how to: \n\nStructure and facilitate meetings effectively.\nEngage students as active partners in course design and learning.\nIncorporate regular feedback loops to improve processes\, strengthen decision-making\, and enhance collaborative projects.\n\nInstructors\nTeri Balser\, University of Calgary\nKelly Clark\, Johns Hopkins University \nCourse Schedule\nThis course meets online in Zoom on Wednesdays\, October 15 through November 19 at 8-10pm Gulf / 12-2pm Eastern / 11am-1pm Central / 9-11am Pacific/Arizona. \n**After November 2nd\, course meets at 9-11pm Gulf / 10am-12pm Arizona** \nAudience\nThis course is intended for a broad range of participants at all career stages\, including faculty and staff\, CIRTL leadership\, postdocs\, or senior level graduate students that are interested in applying the Sociocracy model in classrooms\, committees\, departments\, and higher. \nRegistration and Enrollment\n**Registration closed as of Tuesday\, October 14th** \nCap: 50. 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:Shared Voices\, Shared Decisions: Sociocracy for Educators and Leaders in Higher Ed
DESCRIPTION:University structure/governance varies little across the world and has changed little in basic form across time. It is\, at its essence\, deeply colonial and Western\, characterized by a hierarchical distribution of power. However\, as the world changes rapidly around us\, there is a growing need to authentically include the diverse voices of stakeholders (i.e.\, staff and students) in the decisions that affect their work\, learning\, and wellbeing. This course presents a shared governance model\, “Sociocracy”\, that stresses inclusion and deliberate attention to power dynamics. Based on consent and not consensus\, sociocracy operates at scales from small groups to entire organizations. Participants will explore connections among governance/decision-making\, power structures\, and participatory equity in higher education. They will explore sociocracy as a model for fostering shared decision-making in classrooms\, committees\, departments\, and other academic spaces\, and generate actionable plans to improve power dynamics and advance equity and inclusion in their own contexts. By the end of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify relationships\, power structures\, and/or gaps in participatory equity in governance at their home institution.\nDefine\, explain\, and justify the use of Sociocracy as a viable governance model at multiple levels or scales.\nExplain the significance of sociocratic structures and processes.\nDesign sociocratic structures at levels or scales relevant to their local contexts.\n\nThe course will also prepare participants to apply practical strategies that foster more equitable\, inclusive\, and participatory forms of leadership. These approaches are adaptable to a wide range of settings and contexts. Participants will learn how to: \n\nStructure and facilitate meetings effectively.\nEngage students as active partners in course design and learning.\nIncorporate regular feedback loops to improve processes\, strengthen decision-making\, and enhance collaborative projects.\n\nInstructors\nTeri Balser\, University of Calgary\nKelly Clark\, Johns Hopkins University \nCourse Schedule\nThis course meets online in Zoom on Wednesdays\, October 15 through November 19 at 8-10pm Gulf / 12-2pm Eastern / 11am-1pm Central / 9-11am Pacific/Arizona. \n**After November 2nd\, course meets at 9-11pm Gulf / 10am-12pm Arizona** \nAudience\nThis course is intended for a broad range of participants at all career stages\, including faculty and staff\, CIRTL leadership\, postdocs\, or senior level graduate students that are interested in applying the Sociocracy model in classrooms\, committees\, departments\, and higher. \nRegistration and Enrollment\n**Registration closed as of Tuesday\, October 14th** \nCap: 50. 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.
