2015 CAT/TLA Summer Institute
We’ll highlight the work of some of this year’s teaching co-ops, critical topics in academic technologies, and how to apply it all to teaching, learning, and assessment.
Thursday, May 28, 8:30 am – 4:45pm at the Tanimura & Antle Family Memorial Library, Room 1173 and 1176.
All workshops are hands on, and staff are welcome. Bring course assignments you want to improve, questions, and "I'm done with grading" enthusiasm. If you are attending breakfast or lunch, please RSVP by Friday, May 22.
