Showcase: Seasoned Part-Time Faculty Members Share their Tools, Strategies, and Insights

Using the high-energy approach to sharing innovations and strategies called Lightning Talks, this session will involve an engaged discussion of teaching techniques, strategies, and insights from seasoned part-time faculty colleagues. Lightning Talks is a format of peer sharing that allows a wide range of presenters to share their teaching innovations and strategies to spark connections and new practices across disciplines. The format involves a sequence of individual presenters providing a short introduction (5-7 minutes) on a specific topic, strategy, or assignment idea, followed by a breakout time for participants to sit and talk together about specific topics.

As a result of attending this session, you will be able to:

• Identify a new teaching idea to add to your teaching toolbox;
• Connect with interdisciplinary colleagues about evidence-based teaching; and
• Consider how you might use the Lightning Talks format with our own students.
