Valuing and Enhancing Teaching: Sharing Tips via the Web

Abstract

This session will be a roundtable discussion on the topic of improving teaching. The session will begin with a brief presentation by the authors in which they will discuss the results of a pilot data collection they conducted to establish a web page. The page will serve as a resource for collecting the best ideas for improving teaching and increasing its recognized value in academia. The presentation will include a demonstration of the web site set up to share those ideas. The presentation will be followed by an open discussion of how and when the teaching techniques and tools presented could best be used. Information on how to access the web site and how it might be linked to other sites will be provided also.
