Description

Teaching is one of the main goals of a University / College. Most faculty members would like to motivate and inspire students to learn deeply in their courses. Still, as is well known, some teachers are more effective than others. This workshop is about becoming a more effective teacher.

To be an effective teacher for a course on a subject in higher education, a teacher needs two orthogonal skills: subject matter expertise, and understanding of effective teaching practices. Even with subject matter expertise, without using good teaching approaches, one may not be an effective teacher. The aim of this workshop is to help faculty who have a decent understanding of the subject matter to become more effective teachers. The module focuses on general pedagogy techniques for effective teaching, and any college/HEI faculty member from any discipline can benefit from it.

There is a vast body of literature on Teaching and Learning (T&L) and pedagogy at the college level. This workshop will discuss a few key concepts and practices which are now widely accepted and recognized as being effective in improving the teaching and learning process, and which can be practiced relatively easily in the commonly used lecture-based approach of teaching.
