SUMMARY:The College Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Get an introduction to key learning principles and the basics of effective\, evidence-based teaching practices in this 12-week course about teaching in the college classroom. This course will focus on developing inclusive\, learner-centered approaches to teaching. Participants will explore the interconnectedness of learning objectives\, assessment\, and learning activities through both discussion of course materials and developing and practicing their own lesson plan.  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\nThis course is part of CIRTL’s fall programming on evidence-based teaching fundamentals. \nInstructors\nLisa Rohde\, University of Nebraska – Lincoln\nPeggy Semingson\, University of Texas at Arlington\nTiffany Shoop\, Virginia Tech \nCourse Schedule\nThis course meets in Zoom on Tuesdays\, September 26 through December 12\, at 3-4:30PM AT / 2-3:30PM ET / 1-2:30PM CT / 12-1:30PM MT / 11AM-12:30PM PT. \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\nNo cap. Registration opens on Monday\, August 14\, and closes Tuesday\, September 18. \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 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\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. \nAssociate: Evidence-based teaching\n\nDescribe and recognize the value of realistic well-defined\, achievable\, measurable and student-centered learning goals.\nDescribe several assessment techniques and recognize their alignment with particular types of 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 on student learning.\nDescribe several techniques and issues of establishing LCs comprising a diverse group of learners.\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.\n\nAssociate: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nDescribe how an instructor’s beliefs and biases can influence student learning.\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 the scope of diversity in learning environments\, of both students and instructor.\n\nAssociate: Teaching as Research\n\nDescribe a “full-inquiry” cycle.\n\nPractitioner: Evidence-Based Teaching\n\nAccess the literature and existing knowledge to develop a deeper understanding of existing evidence- based knowledge concerning high- impact\, evidence-based teaching practices.\n\nPractitioner: Learning-through-Diversity\n\nAccess the literature and existing knowledge to develop a deeper understanding diversity and its impact on accomplishing learning goals.

SUMMARY:Basics of Online Learning and Teaching
DESCRIPTION:This online blended 10-week course walks students through online course development in a mix of synchronous and asynchronous activities. The course will begin with 4 weeks of synchronous online sessions providing an overview of the course and effective online pedagogy. This will be followed by a mix of synchronous and asynchronous sessions on building a course. Each week will involve approximately 4-6 hours of readings\, videos\, assignments\, discussions\, and peer feedback. During this time students will work on their final projects where they will develop materials for an online course (or unit) they plan to teach in the future. The course will end with students giving micro-teaching presentations to the group.\nREGISTRATION IS CLOSED \nInstructors\nDouglas Habib\, University of Idaho\nPeggy Semingson\, University of Texas at Arlington \nCourse Schedule\nThis blended synchronous-asynchronous course will run on Mondays from June 5 through August 7\, with synchronous sessions taking place at 1-2:30PM AT / 12-1:30PM ET / 11AM-12:30PM CT / 10-11:30AM MT / 9-10:30AM PT. \nWorkload\nStudents should plan to spend approximately 4-6 hours per week on coursework\, in addition to synchronous sessions on weeks when those occur. \nRegistration & Enrollment\n*Note: This course is at capacity as of Wednesday\, May 31* \nThis course has a cap of 30 students. Registration opens on Monday\, May 15\, and closes Friday\, June 2. 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 a disability\, please let us know your learning needs.
