Join U of T faculty graduates of the Association of College and University Educators (ACUE) Effective Teaching Practices course (ACUE-Certified Faculty) as they share insights from the 25 modules they completed over several months. They implemented, reimagined, and extended evidence-based teaching practices to support their teaching, learning and student success at U of T. This Series invites participants to hear from these instructors: their reflections upon what they have learned, and practical examples and tips informed by evidence-based strategies. Facilitators will engage in discussions on sharing these approaches into one’s current practice.

In this session Katherine Trip and Nancy Johnston will discuss their teaching strategies to support students in online learning through enhanced communication with students, scaffolding expectations for participation and assignments. They will discuss their use of pedagogical strategies, such as video introductions, lecture outlines and vocabulary lists, and synchronous/ asynchronous engagement activities, to create an inclusive online environment and help students to persist in their learning online. Both instructors draw from their diverse perspectives in teaching Nursing and Humanities students to explore how they have explored pedagogical advice and research from ACUE on promoting active learning and encouraging an inclusive course environment.
