Upcoming Events
Springboard to Action! Rethinking Student Assessment
Workshop/Training
The "Springboard to Action!" series events are yearly workshops sponsored by the Office of the Provost and Empowering Teaching Excellence. These workshops are designed for USU instructors to dedicate the day and implement a practice in their teaching that they had been planning on doing. Each Springboard workshop has a different theme. This year's "Springboard to Action Series" is rethinking student assessment with a focus on implementing ungrading practices into course construction. Participants will be presented with several short ignition ideas by facilitators, participate in breakouts, implement their own practices, and receive feedback from their group and designated facilitator.
Leveling Up with Active Learning
Workshop/Training | Sparkshops
In September 2019, a study conducted at Harvard University was published. It focused on the response of students to different instructional approaches – specifically passive lecturing versus active learning. Based on prior research, the authors believed that students would learn more in active learning environments but they wanted to understand why so many students and faculty remain hesitant to switch to active learning. This Sparkshop workshop will discuss some of the findings of that study and offer several ideas and examples of ways to incorporate active learning strategies in a variety of classroom settings. It will also focus on group learning and how to facilitate dialogue, connection, exploration, and understanding among and between students.
Concurrent Enrollment Workshop
Workshop/Training
This workshop was designed to provide our CE Instructors with insights into what USU resources are available, how they fit into USU's goal of teaching excellence, and building community. During this event, instructors will learn about general education assessments, Canvas basics, and departmental resources.
