Learning by Observing: The Art of an Effective Teaching Observation (for Graduate Students)
02/14/2020 @ 12:10 pm - 1:25 pm
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 observations of teaching that focuses on instructional intention, 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, 2019-20 Senior Teaching Consultant at the CTL. Lunch will be available to all registered participants.
Attending this workshop and posting reflections satisfies a Foundational Track requirement for participants in the Teaching Development Program (TDP). See bit.ly/ctl-tdp for details.
