In this course\, participants will \n\nExplore inclusive\, learner-centered teaching theories and practices\nRead and discuss literature on effective teaching and learning\nApply evidence-based strategies to your teaching practice\nCreate connections between learning objectives\, assessments\, and learning activities in order to build and teach a lesson plan\nReflect on personal teaching values and decision making\n\nInstructors\nBeth Fleener\, University of Texas at Arlington\nAmanda Nolen\, Georgia Tech\nTiffany Shoop\, Virginia Tech \nCourse Schedule\nThis course meets in Zoom on Tuesdays\, September 8 through November 10\, at 9–10:30pm Gulf / 1–2:30pm Eastern / 12–1:30pm Central / 10–11:30am Pacific/Arizona. \n**After November 1st\, course meets at 10-11:30pm Gulf / 11am-12:30pm Arizona** \nAudience\nThis course is designed first and foremost for graduate students\, postdoctoral researchers\, and early career faculty in STEM/SBE disciplines\, but generally relevant to anyone looking to improve their foundational college-level teaching and learning skills and knowledge. \nRegistration & Enrollment\nRequest a registration reminder \nCap: 100. Registration opens on Monday\, August 17th at 10am CT and will close once capacity is reached. 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 David Larson (dlarson23@wisc.edu)\, who is supporting this course\, 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 course to support accessibility for all our students: \n\nUsing alt-text on images in reading materials\nSending weekly reminders with upcoming assignments to all students\nSending weekly reminders with missing assignments to students who have late work\nSharing materials for synchronous sessions with students via Moodle (slides\, breakout group activity instructions\, etc.)\nEnabling live captioning in synchronous sessions\nIncorporating multiple modes of interaction into synchronous sessions\nSharing recordings from synchronous sessions\nAllowing students to make up absences and submit work late with no penalty\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:Thinking Like a Search Committee: Packaging Your Experience for a Tenure Track Faculty Position
DESCRIPTION:This workshop pulls back the curtain on the academic hiring process to help postdocs transition into tenure-track faculty roles. By viewing the hiring process through the eyes of a search committee\, participants will learn exactly how their application materials are screened\, scored\, and short-listed. Attendees will gain actionable insights into committee processes and practices and learn how to strategically align their CVs\, cover letters\, and research statements with institutional expectations. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify search committee processes and practices that are unique to tenure-track faculty searches\nIdentify strategies to strengthen their application materials for tenure-track faculty positions\nAnticipate institutional rubrics used by committees to evaluate departmental fit and future funding potential\nDiagnose and correct common application red flags that lead to early elimination during the initial screening phase.\n\nInstructors\nRobin Macaluso\, University of Texas at Arlington \nSchedule\nThis one-session online event meets on Wednesday\, September 23rd at 8-9pm Gulf / 12-1pm Eastern / 11am-12pm Central / 9-10am Pacific/Arizona. \nAudience\nThis session is open to graduate students and postdocs from any discipline who are curious about the tenure-track faculty application process.

SUMMARY:Rethinking Assessment Design in the Age of AI: A Practical Framework
DESCRIPTION:This interactive session introduces a practical framework for redesigning assessments in the age of AI by shifting the focus from answer generation to evidence\, reasoning\, decision-making\, and reflection. Through examples from multiple disciplines\, participants will explore practical strategies for redesigning existing assessments while maintaining alignment with course learning outcomes. The session includes live polls\, guided reflection\, and participant discussion\, providing attendees with actionable ideas they can immediately apply in their own teaching. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nIdentify opportunities to redesign assessments for deeper learning in the age of AI.\nApply a practical framework to redesign an assessment from your own teaching context.\nReflect on how assessment design can better promote evidence\, reasoning\, decision-making\, and reflection in student learning.\nDistinguish between answer-focused and thinking-focused assessments.\n\nInstructors\nSami Mejri\, Khalifa University\nAsli Hassan\, Khalifa University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session online workshop meets in Zoom on Wednesday\, September 30th at 7-8:15pm Gulf / 11am-12:15pm Eastern / 10-11:15am Central / 8-9:15am Pacific/Arizona. \nAudience\nThis workshop is for anyone interested in redesigning assessments in the age of AI by shifting the focus from answer generation to evidence\, reasoning\, decision-making\, and reflection. \nRegistration\nRequest a registration reminder \nNo cap.
