The Advanced Teaching Workshop (ATW)

After completing the TSW, the instructor will attend an Advanced Teaching Workshop over three days in the spring semester. The ATW is a collection of 2-3 hour workshops on common teaching topics and techniques.

Constructing an effective syllabus, technology in the classroom, promoting active learning, and classroom assessment techniques are examples of the types of topics that might be covered; however, the specific topics will vary from year to year. In general, these workshops provide an extended period of time to discuss and question the approaches we are using in the classroom.
