Goals & Outcomes

To achieve meaningful 21st-century teaching and learning within a rapidly transforming world, universities must remain nimble enough to address the diversity of their students with innovative approaches, from the experiential-learning benefits of co-op and internships to study abroad programs and service learning opportunities. Founded in 2002, CET&L commits to providing UC faculty with the innovative professional-development opportunities they need to help our students become successful graduates. Our goals are to:

Foster a UC culture that increasingly values strong teaching;

Expose UC faculty to new pedagogical approaches that will lead to greater efficiency, better student learning, and a more satisfying teaching experience;

Become a more broadly conceptualized destination where faculty can gather to learn new approaches to teaching and learning;

Promote excellence in teaching and learning by offering faculty a variety of program opportunities and formats throughout the year;

Provide workshop or seminar "take-away" products ("tools for the toolbox") that allow faculty to make both immediate and long-term changes in their courses and programs;

Recognize and tap UC faculty to share best practices with their colleagues, as well as harness this knowledge to develop UC-specific resources to help faculty refine existing practices and/or create new ones;

Promote the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) whereby faculty are encouraged to investigate aspects of student learning, so they can make informed changes in their courses and programs;

Promote a community of practice through collaborations with colleges, departments, and units to encourage inter- and multi-disciplinary relationships among faculty that will lead to further innovations in teaching practices;

Partner with UC centers, libraries, and regional campuses in such a way to promote resource sharing which will ultimately lead to more effective programming for faculty.

Programs and Services

SEMINARS

Year-Long Course Redesign Seminars In these interdisciplinary seminars, faculty redesign a course with clearly articulated student learning outcomes; new activities and assignments to help students achieve the learning outcomes; and assessment mechanisms that measure how well students have met the learning goals. More.

Year-Long Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Seminar SoTL seminar participants design, investigate, and implement a research project related to student learning in one of their courses (or programs) over the course of the academic year. Once UC transitions to semesters, SoTL will help faculty and programs better assess and report how semester-conversion strategies work to deepen learning and enhance teaching. More.

Summer Day-Long Seminars These seminars provide an in-depth examination of new ways to engage students, assess learning, and utilize technology for teaching. Facilitators guide participants in creating drafts of how they will implement the new teaching tool, strategy, or concept. These interdisciplinary interactive seminars allow participants to practice new skills and get feedback from colleagues. Summer seminars include:

Distance Learning for the Sciences This seminar provides faculty with the opportunity to share pedagogical methods and resources. Participants:

Increase their expertise in the delivery of distance learning

Engage in faculty collaboration on course development Increase their expertise in retention practices for distance learning courses

Contribute to frameworks for faculty development workshops on distance learning course design and retention practices in the sciences

Create an online resource that will allow faculty to share information for distance learning development and best practices for retention in distance learning environments.

Teaching Large-Enrollment Classes

This day-long search for balance and harmony at the center of the large-enrollment class will begin with an overview of some of the different resources and strategies that might be dictated by different courses and course materials.

Summer Day-Long Seminars (cont.)

Interdisciplinary PBL Development

Problem–based learning poses significant, contextualized, real-world problems to students; then, it provides resources, guidance, and instruction to those learners as they develop content-knowledge and problem-solving skills. In this day-long seminar, participants work as a group in addressing a PBL problem then develop individualized PBL problems for their own courses, considering their unique student-learning outcomes. Service Learning Students who work and train cooperatively and collaboratively learn more and are better prepared for employment. We believe the university that nurtures symbiotic partnerships between students and the greater community in which the university is rooted is stronger for it, and so are our students. This session explores ways to weave service learning and community partners into your courses.

WORKSHOPS These faculty-led sessions cover topics such as team-based learning, course design, and distance learning environments. In addition, the Faculty Technology Resource Center (FTRC), workshops focus on instructional technologies. Classroom Assessment Techniques Closing the loop applies feedback from assessment findings in order to improve student learning. Incorporating these improvements into program structures and practices helps improvements persist.

Learning Portfolios Participants develop plans for learning portfolios that address a variety of student learning outcomes as well as specific assignments to guide students toward such outcomes. They consider the technical resources and challenges as well as theoretical underpinnings.

The Pedagogies and Practicalities of Narrated PowerPoint This workshop covers some of the most popular methods of narrating PowerPoint, along with an introduction to the pedagogical foundations of using narrated PowerPoint to enliven classroom and distance-learning presentations. WordPress for Courses This workshop introduces faculty to the most powerful free blogging software now available and also explores some of its functionality for teaching and learning.

Graduate Assistant Annual Teaching Award

Peer Consultancy Program The CET&L, in collaboration with the Academy of Fellows of Teaching and Learning (AFTL), has launched the Faculty Peer Consultancy Program in order to support faculty who want to improve their teaching skills. Faculty requesting peer consultations will collaborate with colleagues who have already demonstrated expertise in various pedagogical strategies and who have teaching experience in a variety of contexts.

Grants and Awards Competition

CET&L has been awarded FDC monies three years in a row to support faculty development as it relates

to teaching and learning. This competitive grant process has financed a significant portion of CET&L

programming (with the total award amount exceeding $300,000).

Graduate Assistant Seminar & Programs

Workshop Series

GTAs are invited to participate in all CET&L workshops. These sessions provide GTAs opportunities to

rub shoulders with experienced faculty to learn how they continue to improve their teaching. CET&L

also offers GTA-specific workshops on topics such as preparing a syllabus, classroom management, and

writing a teaching philosophy.

GTA Teaching Seminar

Each fall, CET&L collaborates with the Graduate School to host a seminar for new Graduate Teaching

Assistants. In 2009, the GTA Teaching Seminar was re-crafted with experienced GTAs serving as host-

facilitators to promote peer relationships and to provide specifics on negotiating the dual roles of

teacher and graduate student. There were over 200 participants representing all UC colleges.

The GTA Webpage The GTA page on CET&L's website provides turnkey access to information and resources to help GTAs become more comfortable with their roles. There are direct links to CET&L programs and to other resources such as the Graduate School, the Preparing Future Faculty program, and University Libraries. Written in an informal tone, this page also offers suggestions for responding to some common teaching quandaries encountered by graduate students.

Assessment of Programs & Services

CET&L is committed to ensuring that our programs lead to improvements in the way we approach our teaching. To that end, CET&L conducts quantitative and qualitative evaluation of our programs, including, but not limited to pre- and post-seminar evaluations via SurveyMonkey to assess whether faculty benefited from our programs and whether those benefits have led to improvements in student learning. We also gather information as to how we can continue to make program improvements, assess unmet needs, and reinvigorate or create new programs to continue to meet the evolving needs of our faculty.

Qualitative Assessment Excerpts I implemented the course this past quarter (fall 2009), and have received feedback on it. The

response has been quite positive. I am focused more on process, and in particular the activities we do in the class, lining them up with the course goals (which I had not clearly defined before taking the seminar.) Having the awareness of the student outcomes has provided much more focus to my teaching.—Assistant Professor, CCM

12

Qualitative Assessment Excerpts (cont.)

I will be using the tools I learned in this seminar to re-design my other courses with the conversion to semesters.—Assistant Professor, Pharmacy

The best spur was the course redesign seminar itself which asked me to take a close look at the whole process of design and implementation. I have also been communicating with a colleague to assess how we can continue to refine assignments, readings, and assessment. I continue to attend workshops on use of media.—Field Service Instructor, A&S, English

New Initiatives

Semester Conversion Support, see online

Developing Course-Based Student Learning Outcomes Participants work through developing Student Learning Outcomes, i.e. measurable and observable knowledge, skills, abilities, or attitudes that students should have achieved by the end of a course or formal educational experience. Student learning outcomes emphasize what students can do with what they have learned, resulting in a product that can be evaluated. Participants in this program will:

Work through the process of defining their SLOs

Better understand how to assess their SLOs

Learn strategies to create activities and assignments to help students achieve course SLOs

Leave with a draft version of their SLOs for a single course, with the tools necessary to further refine these SLOs to complete the C-1 Form for Semester Conversion.

Defining Course-Based Student Learning Outcomes The seminar is an interactive experience where the seminar leader guides participants through a process of course redesign that includes:

Discussing course expectations

Designing assessments

Constructing learning activities

Creating learning outcomes

Defining and Implementing Program-Based Student Learning Outcomes (2 parts) This two-part series is designed to guide faculty teams through the process of articulating program-specific ideals and constraints in order to best define realistic but ambitious learning outcomes for UC programs. By the end faculty develop a draft of their curricular structure that leverages Integrated Core Learning (ICL), and leave with a draft version of their program outcomes and curricular structure that can then be further refined for the Semester Conversion “Degree Program Template.”

Thank Your Professor

Faculty Spotlight UC has transformed itself over the past decade, and classroom instructors have had a strong hand in that process. The time has come to showcase the talented teachers among us and to learn even more from one another. Via the Faculty Spotlight, the CET&L highlights faculty who are transforming their teaching.

Innovative Uses of Teaching w/Technology Award (added to President’s Awards Ceremony for 2011) Now in its second year, this award honors faculty who use technology in innovative ways to enhance student learning and overcome challenges. This award is intended to encourage more instructors to thoughtfully use technology to improve learning in their classrooms.

Dr. Janet Mannheimer Zydney (at right), the winner of the 2009-2010 Innovative Uses of Technology in teaching award, was recognized for the ways she marries best-practice pedagogy with free and readily available wiki technology to transform the way her students create and publish knowledge. Rather than purchasing a standard textbook about technology and teaching, and then reading its content, students create their own online text which is then published on the CECH Library website to be accessed and used by practicing teachers. This way, students direct their own learning—they become active creators of knowledge rather than passive recipients.
