Center for Teaching and Learning - Journal Club: What is Effective Teaching?

October 08, 2008 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Queens Campus - Library 110

Most faculty have their own ideas about what works in the classroom and what doesn’t, but in addition to such anecdotal evidence, there are also data on what makes for effective teaching.  A good introduction to this literature is “Benchmarks for Effective Educational Practice” available at http://nsse.iub.edu/pdf/nsse_benchmarks.pdf.

Please join us for a discussion of how these benchmarks could enrich our classroom practice.


Date:            Wednesday, October 8

Time:             Noon to 1 p.m.

Location:       Library room 110 in the Academic Commons
