CTLgrads Journal Club (For Graduate Students)

Are you interested in the research on teaching and learning and how to apply this research to your teaching practice? Join us for our CTLgrads Journal Club where we will introduce you to the research on teaching in various disciplines (also known as Discipline-Based Education Research, or DBER) and engage peer-reviewed articles through our group discussions and contributions to the journal club. Each session will also focus on how we can use education research–in our field and beyond–to inform our own teaching practices.

At this meeting we will continue our discussion about community in online classroom spaces:
– Coetzee, D., et al. (2015). “Structuring interactions for large-scale synchronous peer learning.” In Proceedings of CSCW 2015, ACM (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 2015), 1139-1152.
– Barber, W. (2015). “Building community in flipped classrooms: A narrative exploration of digital moments in online learning.” International Conference on E-Learning, 24-30.

– Sign up for our mailing list to learn about the upcoming readings: https://bit.ly/CTLgradsJC-Signup
