Teaching Skills Workshops
The Teaching Skills Workshop Series is
co-sponsored by OED and UTMB’s Academy of Master Teachers offering
1-hour sessions either monthly or twice a month. The topics vary by the
interests of the presenters, but the sessions are oriented toward
developing skills essential for educators and highlighting innovative
and effective instructional methodologies being implemented by UTMB
faculty. Each topic is offered twice, at noon and in the late afternoon,
to increase accessibility for busy faculty. The series has been
traditionally offered as in-person, interactive workshops, but sometimes
a virtual option via the Zoom platform is offered. Topics of interest
include "Scholarly Teaching and the Scholarship of Teaching and
Learning," "Analyzing Educational Materials for Bias and Racism in
Health Professions Education," and "Best Practices in Team-Based
Learning Online".
