Teaching

One of the things I love about being in faculty development is that I am able to help our students by helping our faculty. This "helping our faculty" can either be directly through giving workshops to help all become better in the classroom or indirectly through making the important processes more efficient. This page seeks to achieve both goals.

📚 Books for Classes. To help our students better plan their budgets (and to comply with federal law), all faculty must specify what books they are using for their classes each term. The request generally comes in the middle of the previous term, so be on the lookout for it.
