Dear Colleagues,

I’m writing with a final reminder about our upcoming faculty teaching workshop on Monday, August 5, 9:00 a.m.-noon, in room 114 at the Business Administration Building.  The workshop is co-sponsored by Academic Affairs and the Center for Collaborative Learning.  It will focus on utilizing effective and creative tools in the classroom, with a particular emphasis on collaborative learning. 

If you are planning to attend the workshop, please rsvp me directly at sandersc@uah.edu.  Thank you to those of you who have already responded.  For anyone who may not have a chance in advance to let me know you’ll be there, you are still welcome to attend the workshop.

Dr. Brad Garner, Ph.D., the Director of Faculty Enrichment at Indiana Wesleyan University, will be serving as our facilitator.  I had the pleasure of attending Dr. Garner’s session at a National Conference on the First Year Experience in the spring, which was entitled Teachapalooza 2019: A Festival of Bedazzling Strategies, Tools and Tactics.  It was both inspiring and practical, perfect for relatively new faculty, as well as for more experienced faculty, in learning about a variety of the most effective teaching strategies that can be employed in the classroom.

Both full and part-time faculty are invited to attend the workshop.  I am specifically requesting the assistance of chairs to forward this invitation to part-time faculty in their department.

I look forward to seeing you there,

Carolyn Sanders
