The Excellence in Teaching and Learning Series is designed to showcase educational strategies in engineering and beyond. Our first session will focus on strategies for large (or any!) lectures, including:
- Encouraging participation in a large class
- Effective use of technology
- Managing classroom behaviour
- Determining whether students are meeting your learning objectives
- Planning and delivering effective lectures
The Excellence in Teaching and Learning Series is open to all faculty, staff and students. This will be an interactive session, designed to open a new conversation about teaching and learning in the Faculty.
