Teaching Enhancement Conversations
- Wednesday August 28, 2024
- Rowe Theatre (Top floor Education Building)
- 9:00 am to 12:00 pm
The CTLT committee (representative faculty, academic staff and students chosen to serve) have set a focus for this year’s 14th annual TEC.
The focus of this year’s all-faculty, some students, breakout conversations will be on the future of teaching and learning at university.
Over the course of the morning, 4 different rooms will host 4 different discussions, led by those experienced with trying to answer these questions:
- In which ways that affect teaching do today’s students differ from when we started teaching?
- How might BU classrooms be more useful to teaching my subjects?
- What technologies have we found most useful in our teaching?
- What role might Artificial Intelligence play in easing my teaching workload?
- What role will AI play in my field of research?
- How do current BU students use AI in their lives?
As registrant, you’ll have the chance to help shape all 4 conversations, or stick with the ones that most intrigue you. Each conversation, with suggestions for best ways to proceed this fall, will be summarized in a final plenary. Capped at 100, registration closes end of day Monday, August 26th. Final details will be sent to registrants Monday, August 26th.
Though not as good as being there, we are working on a remote option-so if you are interested, but working at Winnipeg campus, please indicate in your registration. Also, please indicate your food considerations for the opening beverage and snack table.
