Fall Reflective Practice

clock icon 3:30 pm - 4:00 pm

place icon Webex 

The CTL invites faculty to join our new reflective practice community which offers the opportunity to reflect and connect. Here’s how it works – the group will meet every other week on Tuesdays at 3:30 pm  (virtually) and spend 15 – 20 minutes on written reflection. Interested faculty are then invited to stay and discuss their reflections for another 15 – 20 minutes. The CTL designed a reflective practice journal for participants with different questions each session about teaching, scholarship (if applicable), professional duties, and life outside of work. So join us for reflection, or reflection and discussion!



Meetings begin September 23rd at 3:30 pm on WebEx.

Teach Day


clock icon 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

place icon COE 328

Get ready for the semester with this series of 30-minute sessions designed to spark new teaching ideas! Lunch will be provided so please RSVP.

Canvas Tips/Tricks
With a semester of Canvas experience, what are some small tips/tricks that make setting up courses even easier? For example, did you know there's a link-checking tool that will review your course for broken links? Come learn more quick and easy tools you may have missed!

Post-Exam Reflection Tool - Exam Autopsy
A growing number of faculty are using a post-exam reflection tool that asks students to review their exam errors and study strategies and make a plan for future exams. The exam autopsy empowers students to better understand their learning processes and improve their exam scores. Join us to learn more about the tool, our initial findings, and reflections from faculty who have implemented it.

Student Study Skills and Test-Taking Strategies
One thing we learned from student exam autopsies is that many students lack effective study skills and/or test-taking skills. They often cited misreading exam questions, test anxiety, poor time management, and lack of preparation as the reasons for missed exam questions. So how can we help students adopt these skills? This session will introduce strategies to build better study habits and test-taking skills so students can successfully demonstrate their learning.

Inclusive Syllabus Design
This session will showcase the CTL's inclusive syllabus template and how to apply it in your courses. Join us to learn more about how language, tone, and policies can create a more inclusive learning environment from the first day of class.
