<http://www.cirtl.net/f15-teaching-with-tech> Teaching with Technology
On Tuesdays starting September 8 at 3PM ET/2PM CT/1PM MT/12PM PT
How can grad students, post-docs, and professors bring technology into the
STEM classroom in a way that actually enhances learning? This course dives
deep into the online classroom, covering everything from clickers to course
flipping, to help future faculty adapt their teaching skills to
ever-changing dynamics.
Instructors:
Sabrina Kramer, Assistant Director, Teaching and Learning Transformation
Center, University of Maryland
Robert A. Linsenmeier, Professor, Biomedical Engineering and Neurobiology,
Northwestern University
Steven M. Roth, Director of Outreach and Instructional Innovation, Teaching
and Learning Transformation Center; Professor, Department of Kinesiology,
School of Public Health, University of Maryland

<http://www.cirtl.net/f15-diversity-in-stem> Diversity in the College
Classroom: Teaching the STEM Undergraduate
On Mondays starting September 14 at 2PM ET/1PM CT/12PM MT/11AM PT
How can STEM disciplines become more diverse? One solution is to change the
way their taught. This course aims to do just that, with sessions on gender,
race, and unconscious bias.
Instructors:
Denise A. Leonard, Assistant Director, The Teaching Center, Washington
University in St. Louis
Elizabeth D. Ricks, Visiting Professor, School of Education, Howard
University

<http://www.cirtl.net/f15-service-learning-in-stem> Service-Learning in
STEM Classrooms: Introduction to Pedagogy and Practice
On Tuesdays starting September 15 at 2PM ET/1PM CT/12PM MT/11AM PT
Service-learning is a mainstay of college life - but what does it have to do
with the sciences? This course shows you why service-learning matters to
STEM studies, and how to integrate it into the STEM classroom.
Instructor:
Paul Matthews, Associate Director, Office of Service-Learning, University of
Georgia

<http://www.cirtl.net/f15-developing-teaching-portfolio> Developing a
Teaching Portfolio *FULL*
On September 16 and November 18 at 3PM ET/2PM CT/1PM MT/12PM PT
As any STEM student knows, it can be a challenge to balance time in the lab
with time out of the lab - but having a solid teaching portfolio is
essential to getting hired in academia. This course helps you develop
evidence-based portfolios and refine your own teaching philosophy. The final
product is a powerful tool not only for continued reflection on teaching
practices, but for job interviews as well.
Instructor:
Nancy Abney, Instructor, Graduate School Professional Development Program,
University of Alabama at Birmingham

<http://www.cirtl.net/f15-assessments-and-evaluation> Creating Assessments

Every other Thursday starting September 17 at 2PM ET/1PM CT/12PM MT/11AM PT
Being able to assess what your students are learning is a fundamental part
of teaching - but it's only useful if you know what to assess and how to
assess it. This course teaches key assessment techniques that grad students
and postdocs can implement in STEM classrooms.
Instructors:
Mary Besterfield-Sacre, Associate Professor, Industrial Engineering,
Director of Engineering Education Research Center (EERC), Swanson School of
