Events

Types of Events

Teaching Action Groups

Teaching Action Groups (TAGs) are a series of three or more sessions focused upon a particular issue or strategy in teaching and learning. These advanced inquiry groups are highly participatory and limited in size. Participants should have some introductory knowledge of the topic, be willing to look critically at the topic, and apply what they have learned into their own teaching contexts.

Teaching Circles

Teaching Circles are book clubs where CTEL provides the books. Participants will meet 3-4 times during a one-month period to discuss insights or challenges that emerge from the work. This is a great, low-key opportunity to meet new colleagues and share ideas.

Teaching Matters

Teaching Matters is a group of faculty and staff who learn about teaching together. Teaching Matters are intensive semester-long experiences in which instructors are led through a structured process that allows them to learn about specific teaching strategies and create concrete innovations in their teaching practice.

Webinars

Webinars cover a variety of topics. If you would like to watch pedagogical webinars on your own, you will be awarded a badge for every 60 minutes you watch. Send an email to ctel@washburn.edu with the title of the webinars and the date you watched them to receive your badge.

Workshops

Workshops are 1-2 hour face-to-face presentations/discussions/activities that are designed to help faculty and staff learn more about teaching and learning. Our workshops are often collaborative endeavors with different faculty and staff facilitating.

Course Design

Course design programs are usually multi-day opportunities where we work on course design principles and help guide course preparation for both in person and online courses (individual program descriptions will specify which course type it is targeting).

Speakers

Each year CTEL helps design, coordinate, and/or sponsor events that address university-wide issues, and are targeted at generating open dialogue among faculty and staff around the issues of teaching and learning. Speakers will reflect on one of the central pillars that define CTEL (High Impact Practices, Diversity, Technology, Assessment, Pedagogy, Co-curricular Learning).

(9:00-9:45) Formative Assessment Ideas with Kelly McClendon - Come discuss, share, and learn about formative assessment. What is it? What are some examples you can have ready to use? How can you close the loop and make these assessment more useful for your students? (10:00-10:45) Considering Student’s Basic Needs in Your Syllabus with Jason Miller - According to recent studies, more than 40% of college students in the United States are food insecure. These numbers are even higher for first generation, historically underrepresented, and lower income students—each a large population at Washburn. In this interactive workshop, learn more about why you should consider including a basic needs statement in your syllabus, how to craft a statement, and best practices for talking to your students about basic needs in ways that humanize and destigmatize asking for help. You’ll leave the session with a sample statement you can include in your fall syllabus and practical tools that are easy and quick to implement in your classroom! (11:00-11:45) Reimagining Syllabi: Conversations that only teaching nerds get excited about with Emily Grant - In a rapidly evolving educational landscape, the traditional course syllabus is ripe for innovation. The presentation will offer some ideas on novel ways to craft and present course syllabi that foster student engagement and embrace the possibilities of technology. (Or at the very least, of something other than 12-point Times New Roman.) These creative strategies can help us communicate essential course information but also make a positive first impression on our students.

(2:15-3:00) Student Self-Assessment as a Tool for Evaluating Participation with Justin Moss - Research shows that students benefit from participating in class discussions, but requiring participation creates a host of dilemmas for instructors. How do we assess participation in ways that don’t simply reward extroverted students while penalizing their introverted peers? How can we mitigate the effects of implicit bias, imposter syndrome, and the impossibility of keeping track of all students’ contributions? In this workshop, participants will learn about using student self-assessment to evaluate participation meaningfully and effectively. They will view sample tools for student self-assessment and develop materials for use in their own classes. (3:15-4:00) The Faculty Resource Treasure Trove: A voyage of discovery with Sue Taylor-Owens - In this workshop, we'll take you on a voyage of discovery through the online resource centers, showing you where to find everything from faculty tutorials on how to use D2L to CTEL resources to help for students on how to use MyWashburn. We'll also share some tips on how to use these resources effectively. So whether you're a new faculty member or a seasoned veteran, this workshop is for you!

What Students Want: Syllabus Edition

Location:	Memorial Union, Kansas room
Registration:	Register Here
Facilitator:	Carson Kay, Teaching Fellow for Engaged Learning and an Assistant Professor of Communication Studies
Description:	The syllabus is often perceived as a contract between instructors and students, a document designed to manage expectations. Yet, external factors like public health crises, advances in AI, and public safety hazards continue to complicate both the instructors' and students' classroom experiences, and in our efforts to manage ambiguity, we as instructors are constantly updating and adding to our syllabi. After all, our syllabi are supposed to be helpful, informative documents. Yet, the question remains: Are our syllabi actually communicating what students need in order to thrive in our classrooms? In this workshop, we will explore what students -- and specifically Washburn students -- report appreciating in these guiding documents. We will hear directly from an undergraduate student research team who asked college students what they liked their instructors to communicate in the syllabus and what they didn't appreciate. Following their presentation, we will discuss how we might apply those pilot study findings to our own syllabus-writing practices.

During this episode of Liquid Margins, we’ll traverse the challenges Professor Denton faced with his students, especially when confronted with intricate research-oriented texts, and their imperative need for research literacy. We’ll dive deep into the transformative influence social annotation had that not only shattered barriers of complex jargon but also created an environment where undergraduate students achieved an impressive 2x increase in graduate-level comprehension. Discover the near-perfect student engagement levels, the psychological safety social annotation extended to underrepresented groups, and its role in fostering professional identity, particularly evidenced by the significant improvements in student self-efficacy. Particularly noteworthy is how the tool has played a pivotal role in achieving educational equity, with BIPOC and 1st Gen students experiencing academic gains comparable to their majority peers. Register now for an enlightening discussion, rich in data and insights, showcasing how social annotation can have far-reaching effects on student comprehension, engagement, and persistence.
