SUMMARY:Open Doors on Teaching
DESCRIPTION:Open Doors on Teaching is a professional development opportunity designed for university instructors who want to enhance their teaching practice through observation and dialogue. This initiative invites faculty members to step into the classroom of an award-winning educator\, experience their teaching approach firsthand\, and gain insights into effective strategies that engage and inspire students. Instructors can register to visit the classroom of select members of the President’s Teaching Academy (recipients of the President’s Teaching Award). Following the observation\, participants join a reflective discussion with the instructor and peers to share impressions\, ask questions\, and explore practical ways to apply new ideas in their own courses. Open Doors fosters a culture of openness\, collaboration\, and continuous improvement; helping instructors learn from each other and enrich the student learning experience. January 23\, 2026Jonathan Rose\, Professor\, Electrical and Computer Engineering\, FASE ECE 243: Computer Organization (https://engineering.calendar.utoronto.ca/course/ece243h1) Class: 11am-12pm\, in-person\, Sandford Fleming Building\, Room 1101Post-Class Discussion: 12pm-1pm  Class content: Introduction to Memory-Mapped Input/Output: the connection between the virtual and physical world. Approx no. students: 100 Teaching Styles: Question-based; Use of Chalk (old school!); Live demonstration of simulation software \nOther Open Doors on Teaching offerings: Charlie Keil\, Professor\, Cinema Studies\, FAS CIN 105: Introduction to Film Study (https://artsci.calendar.utoronto.ca/course/cin105y1) January 6\, 2026Class: 12:10pm-1pm\, in person Post-Class Discussion: 1pm-2pmREGISTER (https://ctsi.eve.utoronto.ca/home/events/6316) Robert Austin\, Professor\, Teaching Stream\, Centre for European and Eurasian Studies\, Munk EYR200Y1Y: Europe: Nation-State to Supranational Union (https://artsci.calendar.utoronto.ca/course/eur200y1)  January 15\, 2026 Class: 11am-12pm\, in-person Post-Class Discussion: 12pm-1pm REGISTER (https://ctsi.eve.utoronto.ca/home/events/6317)

SUMMARY:GenAI Dialogue with Michelle Arnot: Teaching Experiences with the Cogniti Virtual Tutor
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Michelle Arnot\, Professor\, Teaching Stream and Associate Chair\, Undergraduate Education\, Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology GenAI Dialogues are informal\, 30-minute online sessions where U of T instructors and staff share how they are navigating generative AI in their teaching and learning contexts. Building on discussions from the GenAI Reading Group (https://teaching.utoronto.ca/teaching-uoft-genai/genai-programming/#reading-group)\, each session features a colleague sharing their experience around a particular theme\, followed by open dialogue on what’s working\, what’s uncertain\, and what we’re considering next. In this session: Professor Michelle Arnot will share her experiences implementing the Cogniti Virtual Tutor (https://teaching.utoronto.ca/teaching-uoft-genai/genai-tools/#virtual-tutors)\, as part of U of T’s AI Virtual Tutor Initiative\, in two courses: Introduction to Pharmacology and Pharmacokinetic Principles (PCL201H) and Pharmacodynamic Principles (PCL302H). She will present practical insights on integrating Cogniti in her courses\, including unexpected benefits and challenges\, followed by open discussion. How to Participate: • Bring your thoughts and questions – all perspectives and levels of GenAI experience welcome • Use the Teams Meeting link shared in your EVE registration • Want to stay connected? Join the CTSI GenAI in Teaching and Learning Commons Teams Channel to hear about future sessions and ongoing discussions: Open Microsoft Teams → “Join or create a team” → “Join a team with a code” → Enter code: 5uztctqOther GenAI Dialogue Series events: • GenAI Dialogue with Safieh Moghaddam: Building Critical AI Literacy Across Course Sizes (https://ctsi.eve.utoronto.ca/home/events/6385)\, February 12\, 1:30pm-2pm  • GenAI Dialogue with Rahul Bhat: GenAI and Supporting Student Learning (https://ctsi.eve.utoronto.ca/home/events/6386)\, March 6\, 11:30am-12pm
