Essentials Practice Teaching Sessions (In-Person)

October 9 @ 10:10 am - 11:40 am

CTL will be offering 4 concurrent Practice Teaching sessions (formerly known as “Microteaching” sessions) exclusively for graduate students participating in this term’s Essentials of Teaching and Learning series. This is a new opportunity and space is limited. A registration link will be shared with all participants in the Essentials series this term. 

At this Practice Teaching session, CTL will pair you with a trained peer facilitator and a group of about 3 other graduate students in the Essentials series. Together, you and your fellow participants will take turns delivering short (<7 min.) samples of instruction to each other and practice putting into action the concepts and strategies discussed in the Essentials series. After each teaching sample, your facilitator and your peers will offer structured feedback to support your teaching.

This new offering is an opportunity to try out the application of an approach or technique learned during the Essentials series. Participation in this Practice Teaching session is also a great way to make some quick headway on the CTL’s Teaching Development Program (TDP) as this session satisfies the Application and Practice requirement of the Foundational Track. CTL will provide additional guidance about Practice Teaching in the week prior to the session.
