CAMPUS TALKS & WORKSHOPS (VIRTUAL)

Virtual campus talks & workshops are focused on introducing the topics necessary for building your institution’s capacity to support diverse faculty, diverse students, and inclusive teaching. They allow members of your campus community to gain shared knowledge, frameworks and language they can use to further conversations, act immediately and identify next steps towards its diversity, inclusion and teaching goals. The investment for a 60-90 minute virtual talk/workshop is $3000.

 

Effective & Efficient Faculty's virtual campus talks/workshops are:

  • Informed by research

  • Conducted in an interactive manner

  • Focused on efficient (rather than time intensive) evidence-based practices

  • Designed such that participants know their next individual and/or institutional step at the conclusion of the keynote (i.e. designed with outcome and application in mind)

Faculty might need or want to teach topics that are marginalized, controversial, or otherwise new scholarly perspectives for students. Yet, many faculty are unsure of how to teach these topics in general and are additionally fearful of creating a negative learning environment for diverse students. Participants will learn how to lay an evidence-based foundation for teaching difficult or controversial topics. At the end, participants will have a detailed strategy for choosing, planning and teaching these topics that is suited for their teaching style, discipline, campus, and students.

Teaching in No Time (TINT) 3.0: Preparing for a Stress-Free Efficient and Effective Semester (across course modalities)

This workshop will introduce how faculty can teach effectively with less time and stress--no matter the modality--while using efficient, evidence-based, and inclusive teaching practices. At the end, participants will have ideas on how to adjust their teaching to reduce time while also increasing student learning and will have begun to develop one of those strategies.
