- Class Description:
- This course is aimed at graduate students preparing to become teachers at the college level. We begin by working to understand the social/political context of teaching, including topics such as ethics, multiculturalism, and academic freedom. Students also learn practical teaching skills to be used when lecturing or leading discussions. Active learning strategies are emphasized as effective tools for engaging a wide variety of adult learners. A major part of the course is the independent development of a course syllabus and related lesson plans and exercises.
