Teaching and Learning Center’s Professional Development Series

Submitted by Ashley Schiffer

As part of the Teaching and Learning Center's Professional Development Series, Beth Pesnell, Suzanne Porath and Rick Zajac will present "The Wakonse Conference on Inspiring College Teaching" from noon to 1 p.m. today, Wednesday, Feb. 26, via Zoom.

The Wakonse Conference on Inspiring College Teaching offers a unique, immersive experience that brings together faculty, graduate student instructors, undergraduate students and other education professionals who are passionate about impactful teaching and learning. Removed from the distractions of campus, technology and daily professional obligations, it's like going to summer camp with your friends and being surrounded by forests, water and wildlife. Through highly interactive workshops, small and large group discussions, and hands-on experiential sessions, attendees explore innovative teaching strategies that inspire and transform their practice both inside and outside the classroom. Join us to discover how you can participate in this powerful conference that fosters reflection, creativity and a renewed commitment to student engagement.
