Celebration of Teaching
What is the Celebration of Teaching?
Do you ever wish that you had an opportunity to sit in on your colleagues’ classes? Would you like to see what techniques other faculty use to run discussions and engage students? Are you curious about how classes in other disciplines differ from your own? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then the CTL has an opportunity for you: the third annual “Celebration of Teaching” Week!
This teaching “open doors” week (February 26-March 1, 2024) will give you the chance to see what happens in Colby classrooms across campus. Sign up to be a “host,” and welcome faculty and staff visitors into your classroom. Sign up to be a “guest” as well, and see firsthand how your colleagues foster learning. Hosts and guests will receive a voucher to Mary Low Coffeehouse to engage in a follow-up conversation about the experience. Also join us for a celebratory virtual reception at the end of the week.
