As educators, we are continuously learning and improving our teaching practices. This continuous improvement relies on feedback. In this session, we will share ways instructors can collect feedback from students about teaching. Furthermore, you will learn about how you will get your Student Perceptions of Learning Survey (SPLS) feedback at the end of the semester. You will walk away with an example for collecting feedback during the semester and discuss how to use this feedback for effective instruction.
In this session, participants will explore several educational technology tools and strategies to engage students in learning. Attendees will take away a list of tools ready for immediate use.

This lecture will focus on how artificial intelligence is impacting graduate education, including policies, practical strategies, changing expectations, and the impact on time to degree. Links to custom tools will be provided.
In this session we will discuss cooperative learning principles and how these can be implemented when working with students in recitations, labs, or in class projects.
Participants will be able to participate in a short cooperative learning experience and take what they learned to apply to their disciplinary teaching contexts.
During the academic year, the Dean of the Graduate School, Pero Dagbovie, invites graduate students to join him and his graduate school colleagues for lunch and conversation in Chittenden Hall along the beautiful and historic Laboratory Row.
