Johns Hopkins is pleased to host the second annual Excellence in Online Teaching Symposium, through the generous funding of the Provost's DELTA Teaching-with-Technology Grants.
The Excellence in Online Teaching Symposium brings together faculty and instructional staff to share best practices in designing and facilitating online courses and programs. This is an open online event in which members of the Johns Hopkins community hope to learn from and engage with colleagues from institutions across the globe. This year's symposium features keynote speaker Michelle Miller. It is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 10.
Michelle D. Miller is a professor of psychological sciences at Northern Arizona University specializing in working memory, memory encoding, and the psychology of language. She earned her PhD from UCLA. Her interest in evidence-based, technologically enhanced pedagogy led her to get involved with the course redesign movement sparked in the mid-2000s by the National Center for Academic Transformation. Her latest book is A Teacher's Guide to Learning Student Names: Why You Should, Why It's Hard, How You Can.
If you are part of the JHU community, registration is free. If you are from another institution, the cost is $99 for general admission, $49 for presenters, and $29 for students. Information to join the online symposium via Zoom will be shared the week before the event.
