Workshop Overview:
This workshop, which focuses on teaching groups of students, is designed to enhance the teaching effectiveness of both new and experienced educators. In a supportive atmosphere, you will have an opportunity to explore new teaching approaches and to sharpen existing skills. During the workshop, you will design and conduct three “mini-lessons”, receive verbal, written and video feedback from your peers, and reflect on your own teaching practices. The success of this program relies on the active participation and collaboration of all participants who, as a team, work together to support each other in enhancing their teaching effectiveness.

In addition to our face-to-face time during the workshop, participants should allocate approximately two hours before the workshop for pre-requisite online modules, and time to prepare the first mini-lesson. You will also need to set aside time during the evenings of the workshop for reflection, preparation of the next mini-lesson, and participation in short online activities. A certificate of completion will be awarded to each participant.
