Computerside Chats 2018 (Spring Session 1)
Hours: 1.5
Computerside Chats – Session 1
This is part 1 of a 4-part online learning workshop for ACC faculty. Feel free to join us for as many sessions as you can, but recognize that this series is designed so that you don’t have to attend every session.
Computerside Chats are the ACC book club for faculty where you DON’T HAVE TO READ THE BOOK! Chats for 2018 will focus on the book Learner-centered Teaching: putting the research on learning into practice, by Terry Doyle.
In each session, you’ll be introduced to material and then have time to engage in an online conversation with your teaching colleagues about how ACC instructors might adopt some of these new methods in their classrooms. You’ll be able to get the latest evidence-based teaching without having to dig in to the research on your own.
In this session, we’ll focus on chapters 1-3, covering “Follow the Research,” “Getting Students to do the Work,” and “The Power of Authentic Learning.”
You will need access to a computer for this event. At event time, join the webex meeting by following this link: CLICK HERE to Join WebEx Meeting
