Academic Instructional Skills Program - Panel Discussion on "What makes and effective teacher?"
The Teaching and Learning Centre and the E-Learning Office will be launching the new Academic Instructional Skills Program (AISP) on Thursday, September 16 at 2:30 pm in the Health Sciences Building, Room 104. Come and join us for a discussion with a diverse panel of accomplished post-secondary educators from 69传媒on the topic of 鈥淲hat makes an effective teacher鈥�.
The AISP is for faculty, graduate students and postdocs who are currently teaching at 69传媒or who are interested in teaching at a post-secondary level in the future. The program provides you an opportunity to develop evidence-based teaching expertise and skills that are relevant across disciplines in postsecondary education. Participants build their competencies by engaging in learning opportunities in four domains: Professional Growth, Development and Identity; Learning Spaces and Digital Technologies; Learner-Centredness; and Instructional Practice. The program offers a choice of different modules delivered as self-directed, blended , and/or in-person workshops and activities. Participants that complete designated required workshops and a capstone project within each domain are awarded a badge and upon completion of the program will receive a Certificate in Academic Instructional Skills from UPEI鈥檚 Teaching and Learning Centre.
Visit the Academic Instructional Skills Program page to learn more about the program鈥檚 structure, to view a list of workshop descriptions, and a calendar of workshops you can register for this fall.
