Facilitator: Amy Cook, Teaching Professor, English Department & CFE Faculty Associate 

Session Type: Dialogue Session 

Session Category: Pedagogical Innovation, Success & Belonging 

Duration: 1 hour 

Location: Olscamp 106 

Description & Learning Outcomes: 

Many faculty are experiencing challenges with student engagement, motivation, and performance. Join colleagues from across campus for an interactive dialogue session to share concerns and problem solve collaboratively about topics such as: attendance, deadlines, late work, classroom interactions, group work, reading strategies, and time management. Together, we’ll explore implementations we can make directly as instructors and student behaviors we can recommend for success. Participants will be provided with short articles on these topics in advance of the session and will be encouraged to read one or more of the articles in advance to prepare for the discussion. 

In this session, you will: 

• Discuss your teaching experiences (both challenges and successes) with faculty and instructor colleagues at BGSU. 
• Collaborate to develop proactive approaches to reengage learners and implement evidence-based teaching and learning strategies.  
• Compile concrete strategies to try in your own classrooms. 

This session is designed for BGSU faculty and instructors who are currently teaching a course. Participants are welcome to bring devices if it’s helpful to refer to notes, suggested articles, and/or discussion questions.
