New Faculty Teaching Academy
New Faculty Teaching Academy is offered twice a year (once before Fall semester and again before Spring semester) for new (0-3 years of teaching experience) teaching faculty. It is presented asynchronously online, which allows faculty access to resources year-round. Each module has video and written content, as well as assignments designed to help prepare faculty for the first days of class.
Participant Comments

"I learned so many new ways of engaging my students, being inclusive, and being thoughtful in the structure and organization of my class."
"Lots of tips and tricks for the classroom!"
