Training and Professional Development

  • Join a Discussion on Understanding Students

    You are invited to participate in CETL’s first teaching talk of the semester, “Understanding Students,” on Monday, October 3rd, 12:30 – 1:45 p.m., in ROWE 319.  This is one of a series of informal discussions aimed at sharing teaching concerns and discussing techniques and strategies with colleagues, experts, and CETL staff. 

    At this session, participants will discuss topics like

    • Understanding the typical UConn student
    • Glimpsing college from a freshman’s perspective
    • Being sensitive to student anxiety, stress and depression
    • Adapting teaching for various learning styles
    • Teaching introverted students

    All UConn instructors—graduate students, TAs, and APIRs, as well as adjunct, tenure-track and tenured faculty—are encouraged to attend.
