[cirtl-announce] Registration Updates and Programming Reminders

By Goutam Sarker on January 28, 2019


The CIRTL Network Registration Closing Early for Some Programming The courses “Diversity in the College Classroom” and “Engaging Students in the Teaching of Statistics” have closed early due to higher-than-anticipated numbers of registrants. Though synchronous courses may be full, there is a MOOC you can register to attend. The workshops “Writing a Diversity Statement” and “Getting Ready to Teach in the American Classroom” have both closed early as well. Several workshops and events are still open, however: This Thursday our event series on teaching at community colleges starts with a meet-the-faculty panel–we hope you’ll join us! The “Teaching with Technology” workshop is still open but nearing its cap “Faculty Advising in a Community College Setting” is a recently added workshop with plenty of spots left Looking for something else? The CIRTL Network offers a wide range of programming to provide participants with professional development and to teach them about four pedagogical fundamentals : evidence-based teaching, learning-through-diversity, teaching-as-research, and learning communities. Questions about our programming? Contact us at info@cirtl.net. Spring 2019 Drop-In Events Events have live, real-time online sessions; event series include a handful of events that revolve around a unifying theme in STEM teaching and learning. Events run on a drop-in basis and do not require advance registration. Participants can attend as many or as few events as they like in a given series. Introduction to Teaching at a Community College Thursday 1/31: 1-2:30PM ET / 12-1:30PM CT / 11AM-12:30PM MT / 10-11:30AM PT Have you ever considered a teaching career at a community college?
