SUMMARY:Postdoc Teaching Practicum
DESCRIPTION:Work with an experienced instructor in your discipline to enhance your understanding and experience of teaching a university course in this 5-month mentorship program. During the mentorship program\, you will observe a mentor in their teaching\, teach guest lectures and receive feedback on your teaching\, discuss approaches to teaching with your mentors\, and engage in group discussions of teaching with other participants. Throughout the program\, you will also attend a series of synchronous sessions on teaching development topics\, like lesson planning; teaching portfolios; equity\, diversity & inclusion; and teaching-as-research. By the end of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nCreate a framework for how a typical university course operates\nArticulate how teaching and learning theories intersect with the practical requirements of a university course\nDesign university lessons which incorporate learner-centered lesson planning basics\, demonstrating the alignment of learning objectives\, learning activities and assessment techniques\nDevelop and refine a teaching portfolio using the evience of teaching effectiveness gathered throughout the internship\n\nThis course is part of CIRTL’s fall programming on evidence-based teaching fundamentals. \nInstructor\nNatalie Westwood\, University of British Columbia \nCourse Schedule\nThis 5-part mentorship program has synchronous sessions on Thursday\, December 5\, January 9\, February 6\, March 6\, and April 3 at 9-11pm Gulf / 2-4pm Atlantic / 1-3pm Eastern / 12-2pm Central / 11am-1pm Mountain / 10am-12pm Pacific (note that the course spans the 2024-2025 winter). Participants will be expected to do extensive independent work and work with their teaching mentors outside of these monthly sessions. Monthly sessions will cover: \n\nLesson design\nTeaching portfolios\nScholarship of Teaching & Learning\nEquity\, Diversity & Inclusion in Teaching\nExpert Panel\n\nAudience\nThis practicum is designed exclusively for postdoctoral researchers. Participants are expected to have achieved a CIRTL Associate certificate before enrolling. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nThis practicum has a cap of 40 students and is open for registration through October 28. Registrants will be directed to a short application to confirm their postdoc status\, confirm past experience with teaching and learning professional development\, and share their teaching experience. Before registering\, participants will need to set up a guest  account on University of British Columbia’s website (see directions for creating a “BASIC cwl account” at the bottom of the registration page). \nAccessibility\nIf you have a disability\, please let us know your learning needs. Contact Kate Diamond (kdiamond3@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 regular reminders with upcoming assignments to all students\nSharing materials for synchronous sessions with students via a course website (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\nLearning Outcomes\nAll CIRTL Network programming is designed to help participants achieve familiarity with our Core Ideas. This course is designed around the following learning outcomes. \nPractitioner: Learning Community\n\nContribute to local professionally-focused learning communities associated with teaching and learning\nImplement one or more learning community strategies for students in a learning experience\nIntegrate one or more learning community strategies into a teaching plan so as to accomplish learning goals and learning-through-diversity\n\nProfessional Development\n\nIdentify skills and resources that help you navigate different career pathways\nCreate materials that are commonplace in the academic job market (resumes\, CVs\, teaching portfolios\, diversity statements\, etc.)
