Teaching Discovery Days
The College of Natural Sciences has held an annual Teaching Discovery Day since 2016 to showcase teaching excellence college-wide and encourage discussion among participants about best practices and new ideas in science education and learning.
Participants visit a class, participate in a round-table discussion and attend a celebratory outdoor reception.
In-class observations, teaching discussions and showcases in years past have covered topics such as:
- integrating research on teaching and learning
- effective use of technology in teaching
- engaging TAs, UGTAs, and learning assistants
- building supportive communities
- student-centered strategies
Faculty invitations to register are sent via email in October. You may also register directly at the website when the website registration opens.
