CTD2 Advanced
This faculty development program is intended to build upon foundational topics provided in the Classroom Teaching Development program.
Program Structure
Five interactive, discussion-based workshops will take place in person throughout the 2022-2023 academic year. Topics include:
-
Goals of Teaching
-
Basic Education Theory
-
Innovation/Engagement
-
Learning Climate and Diversity/Inclusivity
-
Feedback: Giving and Receiving
Finally, two capstone sessions with teams presenting their educational topics will finalize the program. Participants will be assigned to a team under one or two faculty coaches to develop and present an educational session as a part of the team by the end of the program.
Well-Qualified Applicants
Applicants must commit to completing the entire series (see “participant expectations” below). This will likely require additional time and energy beyond your current role (estimated ~four hours/month); however, participants will reap long-term benefits and have a vibrant community of support.
The foundational Classroom Teaching Development (CTD1 Foundational) program is strongly encouraged as a prerequisite prior to participation in CTD2. Interested teachers who have participated in other faculty development for classroom teaching will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
