SUMMARY:Quick Tips for Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Teaching can seem like a mysterious juggling act\, especially when we first enter the field. In this interactive workshop\, participants will explore practical tips from the research literature\, their own teaching experience\, and other instructors. During the session\, the facilitators will ask participants to vote on a list of possible topics\, with the most popular topics forming the core of the workshop. Possibilities include: what to do when you don’t know the answer; how to shape an inclusive course climate; using formative and summative feedback; building a flexible lesson plan; ways to stay organized as an instructor; and more. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nIdentify effective strategies for their own teaching or TAing\nDecide on one adaptation to make to their current teaching strategies\nEngage in metacognition\nConceptualize teaching as a series of pedagogical decisions (before/during/after a lesson)\n\nInstructors\nChas Brua\, Pennsylvania State University\nJohn Elia\, Pennsylvania State University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session online workshop meets in Zoom on Monday\, February 23rd at 10-11:30pm Gulf / 1-2:30pm Eastern / 12-1:30pm Central / 11am-12:30pm Arizona / 10-11:30am Pacific. \nAudience\nThis workshop is generally relevant to anyone interested in practical teaching tips from multiple sources. \nRegistration and Enrollment\n**At capacity and closed for registration as of Friday\, February 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. 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) 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 to all students\nSharing resources from synchronous sessions with students\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 2: Connect with community to enhance teaching. See more Goal 2 programming.\nGoal 4: Prepare for an impactful career. See more Goal 4 programming.

SUMMARY:Preparing Your Teaching Demo for a Job Interview
DESCRIPTION:As part of the interview process for a faculty position\, you may be asked to lead a teaching demonstration. In this interactive workshop\, we’ll discuss ways to go into your teaching demo with preparedness\, confidence\, and adaptability. Participants will explore considerations related to their audience\, factors affecting content\, logistics (including technology)\, and teaching/learning interactions. Participants will also strategize ways to cope with unexpected challenges that could emerge during a teaching demo. By the end of this workshop\, participants will be prepared to: \n\nIdentify questions and decision points useful in preparing a teaching demo for a job interview.\nStrategize ways to gather the information needed to effectively plan a teaching demo.\nGenerate strategies for dealing effectively with challenging situations that might emerge during a demo (e.g.\, logistical\, technological\, or interpersonal).\n\nInstructors\nChas Brua\, Pennsylvania State University\nBeate Brunow\, Pennsylvania State University \nWorkshop Schedule\nThis one-session online workshop meets in Zoom on Thursday\, January 15th at 10-11:30pm Gulf / 1-2:30pm Eastern / 12-1:30pm Central / 11am-12:30pm Arizona / 10-11:30am Pacific. \nAudience\nThis workshop is designed first and foremost for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in STEM/SBE disciplines\, but generally relevant to anyone interested in an introduction to teaching demonstrations. \nRegistration and Enrollment\n**At capacity and closed for registration as of Thursday\, January 1st** \nThis course/workshop is at capacity and registration is closed. CIRTL’s self-paced teaching and learning courses are open for learning at any time\, on your own schedule.

SUMMARY:TAR Express: A Teaching-as-Research Very Short Course
DESCRIPTION:Explore how you can create\, test out\, and assess a new approach to your teaching in this short course designed to walk participants through the basics of CIRTL’s “Teaching-as-Research” concept. Through Teaching-as-Research (TAR)\, future faculty can apply their scientific research knowledge to ask and answer a question about teaching and learning. In this three-part short course\, participants will learn about and workshop different components of a TAR project\, and in between sessions they will have the opportunity to receive one-on-one coaching from course instructors. By the end of this course\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify a viable research question for a TAR project\nIdentify appropriate sources of evidence and a plan for data collection and analysis for your TAR project\nIdentify a platform or outlet for presentation or publication of your TAR project\n\nThis course is part of CIRTL’s fall programming on teaching-as-research. \nInstructors\nLaura Cruz\, Pennsylvania State University\nChas Brua\, Pennsylvania State University \nCourse Schedule\nThis 3-part short course has synchronous sessions on Wednesday\, September 13\, September 20\, and November 1 at 1-2:30PM AT / 12-1:30PM ET / 11AM-12:30PM CT / 10-11:30AM MT / 9-10:30AM PT. Participants will use the time between the September 20 and November 1 sessions to schedule one-on-one coaching sessions with the course instructors. \nAudience\nThis short course is designed first and foremost for graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in STEM/SBE disciplines\, but generally relevant to anyone looking to use CIRTL’s teaching-as-research framework to develop their teaching skills through reflective\, iterative\, evidence-based practice. \nRegistration and Enrollment\nThis course is limited to 12 participants. Registration is open Monday\, August 14 and closes Sunday\, August 27. Registrants must fill out a brief application\, which instructors will review to determine eligibility for this course (some foundational knowledge of teaching and learning and specific ideas for a teaching-as-research question are preferred). Once registration closes\, all registrants will be notified of their enrollment status. \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.
