Description

The second annual Provost's Teaching and Learning Symposium will be held on Friday, September 25, 2015 from 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. in the University Center (and assorted rooms).  This symposium, part of the Hrabowski Innovation Fund initiative, will bring together UMBC faculty and staff to discuss ways to promote and explore student learning through pedagogical innovation and assessment.  Samples of presentations include panels on:
  • Hrabowski Innovation Fund Fellows' and Awardees' Projects
  • Applied Learning Experiences
  • Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
  • Learning Assessment Technology
  • Using Direct Measures to Assess Student Learning
  • The Power of Curriculum Mapping
  • Assessing Graduate Courses and Programs
  • and more . . .
There will also be poster presentations, a Speed Geeking session (if you haven't experienced this fast-paced way to share a useful or innovative idea, you're in for a treat!), and a workshop on developing and using rubrics for grading and assessment.

The day will be full of exciting ideas, chances to brainstorm with colleagues about teaching, and good food to fuel our efforts.

REGISTRATION ENDS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16!
