Advanced Topics in Teaching – Learning by Observing: The Art of an Effective Teaching Observation (for graduate students)

Observing faculty or peers teaching can be a powerful way to expand your awareness of teaching techniques, train your attention on student learning, and generate reflection about your own instructional approaches. But how can you ensure that an observation leads to all these benefits?

This workshop will provide participants with a model for conducting online or in-person observations of teaching that focus on learning objectives, student engagement, and insights about the observer’s own teaching development. While the session will be immediately useful to participants completing the Advanced Track of CTL’s Teaching Development Program (see bit.ly/ctl-tdp), it is open to all interested graduate students and postdocs. This session will be facilitated by Zachary Domach, Senior Teaching Consultant at the CTL.
