Teaching Renewal Conference

Current year information is not yet available.

The Teaching Renewal Conference focuses on sharing ideas and research on assessing and overcoming the many challenges faculty face as they try to make learning happen in their courses. It offers faculty an opportunity to:

  1. present original research on college student learning,
  2. conduct hands on workshops in innovative teaching practices that encourage student engagement and
  3. lead discussion groups examining issues involved with teaching. We encourage session formats that involve active participation from conference attendees

Conference participants will have the opportunity to:

  • learn currently used best practices in each strand,
  • deepen understanding of effective teaching and learning practices, and
  • recognize connections between classroom practices and the current policy and political environments.
