Student feedback from end-of-course evaluations (Student Evaluations of Teaching, or SETs) are commonly collected by faculty and academic administrators, but how much do you know about:
• The IU/Explorance Blue Enterprise System course evaluation system used at IUPUI
• The extent to which IUPUI uses this system to gather student data
• How the campus uses the collected data to improve teaching and learning, and about
• How to leverage your course evaluations to improve your teaching and your students’ learning?
This session will highlight some best pratices associated with SETs, and participants engage in an interactive discussion about how IUPUI faculty are using student feedback to improve teaching and learning. You will also learn about the benefits, challenges, and lessons learned from a campus-wide implementation of the IU/Explorance Blue Enterprise System at IUPUI.

High-impact practcies (HIPs) are educational experiences that improve appreciation for diversity, student persistence, learning outcomes, and student success, particularly for underserved student populations. Kuh identified 11 HIPs, including service learning, diversity/global learning, internships, undergraduate research, and others. One of our campus priorities is to increase the numbers and to enhance the effectiveness of HIPs courses. This webinar will provide an introduction to different types of HIPs, HIPs taxonomies developed at IUPUI, and resources on how you can design a new HIP course or improve an existing one.
This webinar is part of the Center for Teaching and Learning’s online mini-workshop series focused on foundational teaching skills, Teaching@IUPUI. Designed for new faculty, adjunct faculty, graduate students, and those looking for a refresher on good teaching practices, the webinars are short, with a brief presentation interspersed with opportunities for interaction and questions. Grounded in current research, the workshops address various teaching topics and provide participants with strategies and resources to make instruction more effective, efficient, and enjoyable. Sessions are scheduled with the time of semester in mind, to keep topics relevant for faculty needs at that time.
This event aligns with the following IUSM Academy of Teaching Scholars program competencies: Instructional Strategies (IS).

As a classroom instructor, from time to time you’ll have a student that you’re worried about. Their attendance and behavior may be erratic or there may be a significant change in the quality of their work or participation. You want to help, but you don’t know what’s available to the student or even how to broach the subject in conversation or an email.
In this webinar, Dr. Julie Lash of IUPUI Counselling and Psychological Services will discuss student mental health concerns in the classroom and helpful ways for faculty to both address classroom situations and connect students with support and resources.

The Profiles of Learning for Undergraduate Success (IUPUI+), our new institutional undergraduate learning outcomes, have replaced the Principles of Undergraduate Learning (PULs) and Principles of Co-Curricular Learning (PCLs). They are written with an active orientation, using student-facing language, and are applicable to all student-facing units. Administrators of all undergraduate programs, and instructors of general education courses and capstone courses, are expected to be among the first to map their learning outcomes to IUPUI+.
In this hands-on workshop, facilitators will provide a brief overview of IUPUI+, share examples of academic and co-curricular programs and courses that already have been mapped, and introduce tools, resources, and processes that participants can use to map their own learning outcomes. Participants are expected to bring copies of or have access to their own learning outcomes during the workshop so they can begin to map their program or course learning outcomes to IUPUI+. Ample time will be given for participants to engage in discussion and ask questions.
This event aligns with the following IUSM Academy of Teaching Scholars program competencies: Curriculum and Course Design (C).
