This leads to difficulties for students entering fourth-year seminars who have not learned the necessary pre-reading skills to succeed. This session will present a third-year class model that is structured around pre-reading and designed to help students bridge the gap between third and fourth-year courses in Philosophy. A key element to this is Perusall—an asynchronous online peer annotation platform for reading that promotes engagement and collaboration. In addition to Perusall\, the course structure\, assessments\, and student feedback will be described. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Faculty of Arts & Science Teaching & Learning Community of Practice (CoP) was established in 2015 to create a collegial forum for faculty and instructors to meet and share teaching practices and strategies across fields and disciplines.

STEM fields are currently facing a crisis with respect to filling jobs with qualified workers\, suggesting that STEM opportunities are available yet remain open and waiting for qualified graduates. Although researchers have previously investigated variables such as demographics and attrition rates associated with the lack of STEM graduates\, there is a critical need for additional research examining the impact of additional career-related variables. Data will be presented on the success of a biology-focused career development course on promoting student science and biology identities. Additional data on student perceptions of career development and how career development earlier in their careers would have been beneficial will also be presented. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Dr. Melissa McCartney\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Biological Sciences and the STEM Transformation Institute\, Florida International University. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nDr. McCartney’s research focuses on developing\, implementing\, and evaluating novel methods of scientific pedagogical practices into biology courses\, with a focus on helping students identify as scientists\, especially as this relates to identifying a scientific career path and entering the STEM workforce. Her work has been supported through ~$1.8M funding from National Institutes of Health (NIH) and National Science Foundation (NSF). Prior to her position at FIU\, Dr. McCartney held prominent educational initiatives positions as a Senior Project Director with the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)\, as an editor at Science and was a Mirzayan Science Policy Fellow at the National Academies working with the Committee on Women in Science\, Engineering\, and Medicine. Dr. McCartney completed a Postdoctoral Fellow in at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and holds a PhD in Neuroscience from The George Washington University. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegister \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJoin via Zoom URL:https://teachingdev.lamp4.utoronto.ca/event/basic-medical-sciences-teaching-seminar/ CATEGORIES:Temerty Faculty of Medicine END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20230221T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20230221T130000 DTSTAMP:20260529T200409 CREATED:20221207T153839Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221207T153843Z UID:10008555-1676980800-1676984400@teachingdev.lamp4.utoronto.ca SUMMARY:Arts & Science Teaching & Technology Drop-In Clinics DESCRIPTION:Presented by Faculty of Arts & Science\, Teaching & Learning \n\n\n\nHave a question about teaching and technology in the Faculty of Arts & Science?

Through an understanding of the theoretical foundations of anti-racist and anti-oppressive pedagogies\, we will unpack how we as educators we can evolve our learning spaces and pedagogies to value students’ diverse experiences\, remove barriers\, nurture critical thinking skills and build community.Participants will learn how to apply pedagogical tools and approaches drawing from research on: Universal Design for Learning (UDL)\, Culturally Responsive Pedagogy (CRP)\, Anti-Racist Education\, Inclusive Education\, Pedagogy of Kindness and Metacognition to create learning experiences that support inclusion\, resiliency and empowerment for students.Learning Outcomes:• Understand and recognize contemporary ideas and theoretical foundations underscoring the work of anti-oppressive/anti-racist teaching and learning practices• Demystify how to create an anti-oppression classroom\, regardless of subject matter of your course• Discuss how identity impacts learning for students  • Learn from faculty who will share their experiences creating anti-oppressive classrooms  URL:https://teachingdev.lamp4.utoronto.ca/event/understanding-learning-theories-that-inform-how-we-promote-and-advance-inclusive-teaching/ CATEGORIES:Centre for Teaching Support & Innovation END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20230222T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20230222T100000 DTSTAMP:20260529T200409 CREATED:20240313T135809Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240313T135809Z UID:10008610-1677056400-1677060000@teachingdev.lamp4.utoronto.ca SUMMARY:Online Grading Vendor Demonstration: Crowdmark DESCRIPTION:Vendor: CrowdmarkThe University is currently conducting a procurement process to select one or more Online Grading Solutions. Online grading solutions allow instructors and their teaching assistants to grade assignments and exams digitally\, even in cases where the student submissions are hand-written. There is an ongoing desire amongst University  instructors to use these kinds of tools to improve the efficacy and consistency of grading\, especially when multiple graders are working on the same assessment artefact. Ideally\, these solutions can be integrated seamlessly with Quercus in the University’s Academic Toolbox. As part of the process\, members of the UofT community are invited to attend presentations and demonstrations by short-listed suppliers. After these presentations\, attendees will be invited to give feedback to the evaluation committee.Please note that each vendor will be demonstrating their wares twice to accommodate as many attendees as possible; there is no need to sign up for more than one session per vendor.

Faculty are welcome to attend one or multiple workshops in the series; recordings will be available for all sessions online (https://teachingdev.lamp4.utoronto.ca/resources/quercus-videos-and-workshop-recordings/).  At the University of Toronto\, a teaching dossier must be submitted as part of the formal review process for tenure and continuing status. Beyond the information included in an academic CV\, a teaching dossier describes and documents an instructor’s teaching expertise\, goals and priorities for teaching and learning\, contributions to course and curriculum design efforts\, evidence of student impact\, and evidence of teaching leadership.  This session focuses on an overview of the content and overall structure of an effective teaching dossier. Participants will develop a plan for assembling and strengthening their own dossiers. They will be guided in how to use a narrative throughout their dossier to connect and create coherence between multiple sections and sources of evidence.  Participants will also have an opportunity to engage with their divisional guidelines to draft key headings for their dossier.  Participants in this workshop will:  • Engage with your own Divisional Guidelines on Teaching Effectiveness to map out key criteria • Identify the key elements of your dossier and artifacts for inclusion • Assess alignment between your teaching claims and evidence\, and identify effective ways to frame evidence • Plan steps for editing your developing narrative and preparing your final document The goal is for participants to leave the session with a clear sense of what steps to take to enhance their dossier drafts. Participants will be provided a digital workbook prior to the webinar and this document will form the basis of the session activities. Please note that this webinar will focus on the preparation of a teaching dossier by appointed faculty members for the purposes of undergoing a review process (tenure or continuing status). Teaching dossiers prepared for job searches carry different expectations and will not be the focus of this session.
