Teaching at Scale

A Series from the Faculty Commons

Teaching at Scale will include an in-person workshop, webinars, online guides, video interviews, and other resources. Rather than briefly addressing a range of needs in a single workshop or guide, this series allows us to more effectively support class prep, participation, grading, and teaching larger classes across modalities.

The series also offers multiple entry points and greater flexibility to engage with what you need most.

Engaging High-Enrollment In-Person Classes
Friday, March 20 1:15 - 2:30pm in MCL 710*

Join Nancy Chick (Executive Director of Teaching, Learning, and Scholarship) for this workshop on engaging students in face-to-face classes** of 60 or more students. When in-person classes cross this enrollment threshold, taking attendance, learning names, and facilitating meaningful participation can seem exponentially more challenging. This workshop will help you develop strategies for planning and managing these activities.

Even if you’re not planning to teach a larger course, the series will offer ideas that can help make everyday teaching more intentional and sustainable.

* Dallas and Houston faculty may join via Zoom.
