SERIES: Synchronous Support for Multi-Modal Teaching: Multi-Modal Learning Environments

Tuesday, September 14, 2021 :: 11:00-12:00 PM

Virtual | WebEx

Intended Audience: CMU Faculty

Facilitated by Sarah Learman, PhD & Stef Lassitter, EdD

Toward engaging and supporting learners in multiple modalities, this series strategically applies resources and examines evidence-based strategies to support integrating your content and teaching techniques across diverse instructional modes. By linking directly to training materials developed for our new self-paced Multi-Modal Teaching Methods Certification (MTMC), live sessions provide real-time opportunities to explore and act during the semester, while also supporting long-term efforts and successful teaching and learning in any learning space.

In this synchronous session to accompany MTMC training, you will learn about the tools and techniques for teaching and learning in various “class” environments and refine your instructional practices to be effective across multiple teaching spaces. We will differentiate between various modes of instruction, and the tools available to support faculty in their application of instructional models and strategies to educate learners in modern settings. We will consider the design and use of your course materials and consider the methods you use to promote meaningful connections with and between students. We will explore learning goals utilizing backward design as an approach for effective teaching across diverse learning spaces, and we will leverage tools and course management systems (e.g., Bb) to effectively and efficiently engage and communicate with learners across diverse instructional modes.
