SUMMARY:An Introduction to Evidence-Based Undergraduate STEM Teaching
DESCRIPTION:* This page is out of date as of 8/11/2025. View updated information for this course here\, including registration information. * \nLearn evidence-based teaching fundamentals in this 8-module\, self-paced\, asynchronous online course designed for future faculty in STEM disciplines (science\, technology\, engineering\, and math). Originally created with funding from the National Sciences Foundation and iteratively updated to reflect contemporary teaching and learning topics\, this course brings together faculty\, staff\, and other teaching and learning experts from across the United States to teach about core aspects of teaching: understanding how people learn\, developing and assessing learning objectives\, using active and inclusive teaching strategies to support all learners\, and how to turn all these pieces into a coherent lesson plan. Each module guides learners through lesson content\, discussion prompts for deeper reflection\, quizzes to reinforce key concepts\, and assignments to translate what you’re learning into your personal teaching context. \nMany CIRTL member institutions run cohort-based learning communities during the academic year around this course. If you are at a CIRTL member institution\, find your institution’s CIRTL program here and visit their website to see if they are offering a learning community for local future faculty. \nRegistration\nThis page is out of date as of 8/11/2025. View updated information for this course here\, including registration information. \nAccessibility\nIf you have access needs\, please let us know what they are. The course is heavily video and text based; videos are captioned\, and text is formatted for screen readers. Contact CIRTL’s help desk at support@cirtl.net to let us know how else we can help you have a successful experience. \n\nLearning Outcomes\nAll CIRTL Network programming is designed to help participants achieve familiarity with our Core Ideas. This workshop is designed around the following learning outcomes. \nAssociate: Evidence-Based Teaching\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of realistic well-defined\, achievable\, measurable and student-centered learning goals.\nDescribe several known high-impact\, evidence-based effective instructional practices and materials and recognize their alignment with particular types of learning goals.\nDescribe several assessment techniques and recognize their alignment with particular types of learning goals.\n\nAssociate: Learning Community\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of learning communities\, and how they impact student learning.\nDescribe several techniques for creating a LC within a learning environment\, including strategies that promote positive interdependence between learners so as to accomplish learning goals.\nDescribe several techniques and issues of establishing LCs comprising a diverse group of learners.\n\nAssociate: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nDescribe the impact of diversity on student learning\, in particular how diversity can enhance learning\, and how inequities can negatively impact learning if not addressed.\nDescribe and recognize the value of drawing on diversity in the development of teaching plans (including content\, teaching practices and assessments) to foster learning.

SUMMARY:Advancing Learning Through Evidence-Based STEM Teaching
DESCRIPTION:* This page is out of date as of 8/11/2025. View updated information for this course here\, including registration information. * \nLearn effective college-level teaching strategies that engage learners through active learning\, as well as the research that supports them\, in this 8-module\, self-paced\, asynchronous online course designed for future faculty in STEM disciplines (science\, technology\, engineering\, and math). Originally created with funding from the National Sciences Foundation and iteratively updated to reflect contemporary teaching and learning topics\, this course brings together faculty\, staff\, and other teaching and learning experts from across the United States to teach about: how to engage students in active learning in classrooms using strategies such as peer instruction and problem-based learning; developing methods to help your students think more like experts in their fields using inquiry-based labs and similar activities; turning your classrooms into learning communities through cooperative learning and using the diverse perspectives of your students; and using approaches like flipped classrooms that make it possible to build active and collaborative learning into your classes. Each module guides learners through lesson content\, discussion prompts for deeper reflection\, quizzes to reinforce key concepts\, and assignments to translate what you’re learning into your personal teaching context. \nMany CIRTL member institutions run cohort-based learning communities during the academic year around this course. If you are at a CIRTL member institution\, find your institution’s CIRTL program here and visit their website to see if they are offering a learning community for local future faculty. \nThis course builds on “An Introduction to Evidence-Based Undergraduate STEM Teaching”; the intro course is recommended\, but not required\, as a prerequisite for participating in this course. \nRegistration\nThis course is hosted on CIRTL’s Moodle site. To take this course\, you will need to access Moodle\, enroll in the course\, and then fill out a registration form to get access to course content: \n\nUse an existing account to log into Moodle if you have one. If you aren’t sure if you have an account\, or know you don’t\, you can create a new account instead.\nLog into your Moodle account and follow the instructions to enroll in this course.\nFill out the course registration form to tell us more about yourself and gain access to the course content.\n\nRegardless of how you plan to engage with this course – individually and self-paced\, as a participant in a local learning community\, or as a facilitator of a local learning community – you need to follow those steps to enroll and gain access to course content. \nAccessibility\nIf you have access needs\, please let us know what they are. The course is heavily video and text based; videos are captioned\, and text is formatted for screen readers. Contact CIRTL’s help desk at support@cirtl.net to let us know how else we can help you have a successful experience. \n\nLearning Outcomes\nAssociate: Evidence-Based Teaching\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of realistic well-defined\, achievable\, measurable and student-centered learning goals.\nDescribe several known high-impact\, evidence-based effective instructional practices and materials and recognize their alignment with particular types of learning goals.\n\nAssociate: Learning Community\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of learning communities\, and how they impact student learning.\n\nAssociate: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nDescribe the impact of diversity on student learning\, in particular how diversity can enhance learning\, and how inequities can negatively impact learning if not addressed.\nDescribe and recognize the value of drawing on diversity in the development of teaching plans (including content\, teaching practices and assessments) to foster learning.\nDescribe several learning-through-diversity (LtD) techniques and strategies.

SUMMARY:Exploring Teaching Across Institutions: A Photographic Journey
DESCRIPTION:Explore selections from a comprehensive contemporary photographic project depicting higher education in the US during this interactive\, single-session workshop. Using photographs from the project and an open-source photo collection\, participants will observe and reflect on teaching and learning in action across a wide variety of institutions and disciplines\, and will come away with insights about the roles of instructors and students\, in-class learning\, spaces and technologies that support (or hinder) teaching and learning\, and more. They will also explore how visual representations of their work could contribute to professional materials. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nObserve and reflect on teaching using photographs as a prompt and source of insight\nApply insights from observations to their own teaching\n\nInstructors\nCassandra Horii\, Stanford University\nMartin Springborg\, Dakota County Technical College \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session online workshop meets on Tuesday\, July 22 at 9-10:30pm Gulf / 2-3:30pm Atlantic / 1-2:30pm Eastern / 12-1:30pm Central / 11am-12:30pm Mountain / 10-11:30am Pacific/Arizona. \nAudience\nThis workshop is first and foremost for participants that wish to apply reflective insights to their own teaching practices\, but all interested in visual representations of teaching and learning across different institutions and disciplines are welcome. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nThis workshop has no cap\, and registration is now open.
