Faculty are invited to attend the Best Practices in University Teaching workshop offered by the JHU Center for Teaching Excellence and Innovation (CTEI). Johns Hopkins faculty and senior leaders will share pedagogical best practices with faculty interested in learning how to become more effective and efficient teachers. The multiday workshop will occur online from Monday, July 25, through Friday, July 29. The workshop will feature a daily synchronous/live session from 9 to 11 a.m. ET, followed by asynchronous sessions and work to be completed daily on your own schedule.
Topics will include an introduction to the science of learning, best practices for designing a course, effective assessment strategies, evidence-based teaching strategies, inclusive pedagogy and universal design for learning, grading and evaluation strategies, and teaching/technology resources used at Johns Hopkins and peer institutions. All sessions will model active-learning strategies. The structured exercises will help participants develop materials for a course they plan to teach in the future. This is an excellent opportunity for new teachers or experienced teachers new to Johns Hopkins to learn more about teaching at Homewood.
Please consider taking advantage of this excellent opportunity. Visit the CTEI website for workshop details and registration. Registration is open now. The workshop fee is covered 100% by the tuition remission benefit available to eligible full-time faculty.
Contact Mike Reese at mreese@jhu.edu, the Center for Teaching Excellence and Innovation director, if you have any questions about the workshop.
