Doing SoTL well often challenges us to use literature and methods outside of our own discipline. The reading circle provides an opportunity to become familiar with relevant methodologies, examples of SoTL, and to gain insight into the connection of SoTL to effective teaching.

Creating Social Presence Online (Free online seminar)
Wednesday, November 12, from 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Presented by Carol Hostetter, School of Social Work, IUPUI

As higher education offers more online courses to better serve students, the scholarship of teaching and learning adds to our understanding of how to construct an excellent online teaching and learning environment. The study examined the social presence of an online class compared to face-to-face. Social presence theory holds promise as a means of infusing online courses with principles of educational excellence. Findings reveal a positive relationship between social presence and learning outcomes. To register go to http://ctl.iupui.edu/Events/eventsRegistration.asp?id=1252

This webinar will be offered online via Adobe Connect. It will be recorded and also available online at the IUPUI Center for Teaching and Learning after the session. http://ctl.iupui.edu/Events/tuesdays.asp Connection information will be emailed to all registrants a couple of days prior to the webinar.


Faculty Showcase: Mobile Teaching Environments

When you can develop your lectures and visual materials on the same computer that you will present on you are likely to feel more confident and creative in using technology to support your teaching. That’s the premise of the Mobile Teaching Environment project, in which CELT provided laptops and tablets to 8 teachers. Participants in the project share experiences, tips, and tactics gained from having a portable computer at their disposal. Registration is required.
