The Center for Teaching and Learning Invites you
“Wait, I’m the teacher?: Tips for teaching your first class”
Teaching your first class can bring a mix of feelings - excitement, anticipation, and even overwhelm. This workshop is designed to help instructors with practical tips in planning course details, prepping lectures and class time use, and setting your future self-up for course improvements.
This in-person session is geared towards graduate students preparing to teach their first class and facilitated by CTL Associate Director Dr. Salena Brody. Workshop topics include: backward design, intentional course policies, flexibility, and student engagement.
Bring a laptop and any materials you already have prepared for your first course (e.g. draft syllabus, assignments, policies).
May 14th 11:00am - 1:30pm
McDermott Library, CTL Classroom, MC 2.404
