Getting students to come to class prepared can be a challenge, but it is essential to making productive use of class time. Learning increases when students prepare for class meetings and, in turn, helps students see the value of assuming responsibility for their learning. This session will introduce instructional strategies to guide students’ pre-class learning, making explicit the relevance pre-class work and its assessment to student learning outcomes.

A teaching philosophy presents a faculty member’s reflection on the experiences and beliefs that shape his or her teaching and learning strategies. Often used as part of a job application, a promotion and tenure dossier, a teaching award nomination, or course syllabi, a teaching philosophy captures and documents a teacher’s values and aspirations in teaching. This webinar will review one model for structuring a teaching philosophy and will also examine some example philosophies. Webinar participants will take the first steps in articulating their teaching philosophy; those who have already begun to craft a philosophy will have an opportunity to continue that work. This webinar is the 1st webinar in a 3-webinar series designed to introduce faculty and graduate students to the process of creating, refining and documenting one’s teaching practices.
