Registration is now open for the Teaching & Creativity Center’s first Fall Forum, to be held Friday, October 16 at DCC. This event is open to all faculty (senior, new, tenured, untenured, adjunct), professional staff, and administrators.
This very special half-day program is part of the TCC’s 2015-16 theme, Helping Our Students Learn How to Learn.
We’ll begin at 9am with a discussion of the role of metacognition in learning and then offer participants the opportunity to continue with focused discussion as well as to create materials that they can use in classes. Participants will have a choice of workshops and the program will conclude with lunch. Workshop topics will include: helping students learn how to develop and apply goal-setting strategies to enhance their academic experience; helping students learn how to practice effective note-taking from either lecture or text; helping students learn how to use textbook features and learn more effectively from their textbooks and other print materials.
