SUMMARY:Introduction to Backwards Design and UDL
DESCRIPTION:Facilitators: Cristina D’Amico\, Faculty Liaison Coordinator\, Graduate Student Development & TA TrainingMichal Kasprzak\, Assistant Director\, CTSI/TATP  \nIn this workshop\, we will offer a dual introduction to two key concepts in effective and inclusive course design: “Backward Design” and “Universal Design for Learning (UDL).” Participants will understand how to prioritize their intended learning outcomes (Wiggins and McTighe\, 2005) in their course design\, and how to use these outcomes to structure assessments\, lectures\, and in-class engagements with students. We will simultaneously consider the core principles of UDL (multiple means of expression\, representation\, and action & expression) and how to incorporate these modalities into your course learning outcomes. By the end of the workshop\, participants will be able to implement inclusive thinking in the construction of their course learning outcomes.

SUMMARY:Tune into Teaching: From Panic to Possibility: Rethinking and Redesigning Assignments in the Wake of Generative AI
DESCRIPTION:Facilitators: Alison Gibbs\, Director\, Centre for Teaching Support & Innovation (CTSI)\, and Professor\, Teaching Stream\, Department of Statistical SciencesAndrea Williams\, Deputy Director\, CTSI\, Associate Professor\, Teaching Stream\, Innis College and Director of Writing & Rhetoric and Innis OneAs an instructor\, it is hard to read about the impact of generative AI on teaching and learning in higher education and not wonder what we are going to do come September\, especially when we are told that many of our students are already using it. This workshop will help move you from panic mode to problem-solving: in consultation with workshop leaders and faculty peers\, you will get a chance to rethink and redesign one of your assignments with a focus on learning objectives\, possibilities\, and constraints in our new context.  Participants will be asked to come prepared with one or two assignments and a related class activity that could be rethought in view of generative AI. You will have the opportunity to work on adapting these assignments during the session.

SUMMARY:Course Instructor Training Camp – August 2023
DESCRIPTION:Please note that these sessions can be counted towards Course Instructor Job training\, but not towards either the Teaching Fundamentals or Advanced University Teaching Preparation Certificates. Nevertheless\, anyone is welcome to participate in the event.This training is grouped into two parts: five asynchronous learning modules (3 hours)\, and two 1.5-hour hybrid workshop sessions. These sessions are online. You must complete the 5 asynchronous modules before you can attend the workshops. You may choose to join the hybrid sessions online or in-person\, but your presence is expected either in the physical or online space for the entire synchronous component.The asynchronous modules focus on many of the principle components of course design\, including learning outcomes\, assessment\, and syllabus design\, and highlight how these components are informed by UDL (Universal Design for Learning) and Equity-Oriented Pedagogy. We also discuss policies and course administration details that are specific to the University of Toronto. The content covered in these modules is applicable to face-to-face and online learning contexts.Upon completion of the asynchronous modules\, you will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nlist the fundamental principles of course design\n\n\n\napply the principles of Universal Design for Learning to your course design\n\n\n\ncreate courses that reduce barriers to learning and foster an inclusive environment\n\n\n\narticulate effective learning outcomes that aim to serve all students\n\n\n\ndevelop effective\, well-designed courses that engage your students\n\n\n\noutline and implement University policies and administration concerning your course design and deliverThe two hybrid workshop sessions take place after the asynchronous modules. In the first session (Exploring Course Design)\, we take up the activities that were completed during the asynchronous modules\, and answer questions related to the design of your course. Participants will also complete a syllabus activity that will help them identify areas of strength and potential areas of weakness in their syllabus. For this reason\, we require participants to bring a draft of a syllabus – it does not have to be a finished or polished draft\, and can be for a course you have taught before\, a course you are about to teach\, or a course you would like to teach in the future.In the second session (Effective Practices for Engaging Lectures)\, we focus our discussion on how you can deliver engaging and equitable lectures. We explore three key areas\, including planning\, delivery\, and reflection. We will discuss strategies that are relevant in both face-to-face and online learning contexts\, and we will consider these strategies with accessibility and inclusivity in mind.You must complete the 5 asynchronous modules before you can attend the workshop sessions on August 24thAsynchronous Modules : https://q.utoronto.ca/enroll/HMN9RW (https://q.utoronto.ca/enroll/HMN9RW)\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse Design\n\n\n\nLearning Outcomes\n\n\n\nAssessments\n\n\n\nBuilding Your Syllabus\n\n\n\nCourse Administration and PoliciesIn-Person/Hybrid Workshops – August 24th\, 2023:1:00pm – 2:30pm: Exploring Course Design3:00pm – 4:30pm: Effective Practices for Engaging LecturesIf you have any questions\, please contact services.ta@utoronto.ca (mailto:services.ta@utoronto.ca).

SUMMARY:Tune into Teaching: What’s my role in accommodating students with disabilities?
DESCRIPTION:Facilitators: Michael Nicholson\, Director of Accessibility ServicesSarah Kloke\, Assistant Director of Accessibility Services Reginald (Reggie) Oey\, Accessible and Inclusive Learning Team Lead Unsure where your responsibilities and role starts and ends when accommodating students with disabilities? Eager to learn more about strategies to help with creative accommodations solutions? Searching for additional support (and who to go to) when accommodation requests arise? In this event\, Accessibility Services will address common concerns around instructors’ work with accommodating students in their classes. This event also will examine what instructors can do to support students who request accommodations while keeping in mind the essential requirements of their courses. Examples of creative solutions to common accommodations and applications of these solutions in case studies will also be discussed. Accessibility Services will also share how best to contact them if additional support is needed. By the end of this session\, instructors will have a better understanding of their role within the accommodations process. NB: You will be asked to answer additional questions when registering.

SUMMARY:Tune into Teaching: Making Your Syllabus Work for You and Your Students
DESCRIPTION:Facilitators: Megan Burnett\, Associate Director\, CTSI Samantha Chang\, Faculty Liaison\, Anti-Racist Pedagogies\, CTSIEmily Hector\, Liaison Librarian\, Education\, UTLA well-crafted syllabus ensures that students understand the essential requirements for participating and succeeding in a course. A well-designed syllabus can also serve as a learning tool to enhance students’ experience in the course\, beyond listing course policies and due dates. This practical\, interactive session will consider the essential elements of an effective syllabus\, review current best practices in syllabus design and examine a model University of Toronto course syllabus. As a participant in this session\, we ask that you have one of the following at hand during the workshop: • A proposed course syllabus for a new course you would like to teach one dayOR • A course syllabus for an existing U of T course you are seeking to refresh The goal of this workshop is for each participant to leave with a well-developed plan for revising/crafting a powerful syllabus that works for both instructor and learner. Participants who join the session without a document to work from and discuss in break-out groups will not benefit as fully from this session.
