Dear CUL Instructors,
Save the date for an End of Semester Instruction Forum on Friday, December 14, 3:00 - 4:30 pm in Mann 160.
The forum will be an opportunity to reflect on our teaching this semester, learn from our colleagues, and share successes and challenges. We will use the Charette Protocol, a small groups discussion technique that gives all participants time to speak uninterrupted and to actively listen and respond to the concerns and ideas of others.
To help us prepare for the session, please identify a specific teaching and learning problem or issue that you would like to discuss. Together we’ll brainstorm and work on aspects of teaching that you would like to improve. For example: using group work effectively, explaining subject headings, getting students to understand why to use library resources, using visual aids, leading discussions. You could describe a technique that you learned at ACRL Immersion, tried this semester, and want to improve.
Open to all staff who teach library sessions or workshops.
Please let us know if you'll attend. R.S.V.P. by Monday, Dec. 3 to Kaila Bussert, kjb82@cornell.edu.
Refreshments provided. Following the forum, please join us at The Statler Lounge for more socializing and end of semester celebration. (Food and drinks on your own at The Statler.)
