TLISI offers Georgetown University faculty and staff from all campuses the opportunity to explore strategies for excellence in teaching and learning. This year’s Institute will focus on several topic areas, including effective teaching and learning practices, inclusive pedagogies, technology-enhanced learning, Ignatian pedagogy, cross-institutional and cross-departmental collaborations, and more.
We hope you’ll join us in our efforts to make TLISI "green"! We’re partnering with the Office of Sustainability to reduce the environmental impact from this year’s Institute by providing compostable materials and expanding our recycling presence. Each registrant will also receive a free aluminum water bottle upon picking up your name badge at registration. You can help us Go Green by bringing your reusable water bottle back with you each day, as we will be limiting our supply of single-use plastics throughout the week. Stop by our information table anytime Monday-Thursday to learn about ways that you can help your office Go Green!
As podcasting continues to grow in popularity across mainstream culture and academia, it is important for interested faculty and staff to approach this process with intentionality. In this panel we will gather staff and faculty from across disciplines and departments to explore how to effectively use this medium to enhance teaching, learning, and scholarship. Panelists will discuss how they have used podcasting in lieu of traditional class assignments, for sharing their research, for providing informal avenues of learning, and for helping students build digital literacy skills. Panelists will also discuss technical and thematic best practices of using this exciting format.
