SUMMARY:Teachers' Lounge | Lessons from a Pandemic: Testing and Trust
DESCRIPTION:Register here.  \nHow has the experience of running classes online clarified what is important about traditional ways of measuring our students’ knowledge and capacities? What adjustments have we needed to make when designing and giving tests for students in order to navigate the emotional and logistical challenges of this difficult and unsettled time? Join us for a frank discussion of topics such as proctoring\, maintaining or relaxing standards\, accommodations\, and trust. \nTeachers’ Lounges are a series of informal discussions for graduate students about teaching practices and the culture of learning at Columbia. Since many classes have shifted online this semester\, Teachers’ Lounges are linking theories and models of online instruction to insights derived from working in digital learning spaces with Columbia students. \nThis session is facilitated by Mark Phillipson and Chris Chen from the Center for Teaching and Learning. \nColumbia University makes every effort to accommodate individuals with disabilities. Contact CTLgrads@columbia.edu for accommodations. This event may be photographed. For concerns\, contact CTLgrads@columbia.edu \n

SUMMARY:Inclusive Teaching Seminar 2 - Establishing Course Climate
DESCRIPTION:Register here.  \nFor Graduate Students:  This is Session 2 of CTL’s six-part series exploring the principles and frameworks that define an inclusive teaching practice through guided debrief discussions based on the CTL’s Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) “Inclusive Teaching: Supporting All Students in the College Classroom.” Attendance at prior or later sessions of CTL’s Inclusive Teaching discussion series is not required to attend this session\, but is highly recommended.
