Teaching and Learning for Asian/Asian North American Faculty
Description:
This workshop will gather 14 pre-tenure Asian/Asian North American scholars in their first years of teaching. For an entire week during two successive summers, and for a weekend winter retreat in a "warm city," this workshop learning community of committed and skilled teachers will explore such topics as:
• course design, assignments, and assessment
• ethics in the classroom
• student learning styles
• philosophy of education
• issues of teaching and learning from cultural specificity, as experienced in different teaching and learning contexts
• vocation, career, and becoming a healthy, happy, nurturing teacher
The workshop balances plenary sessions, with small group discussions, structured and unstructured social time, individual and collaborative work on teaching projects -- relaxation, exercise, contemplation, meditation, rejuvenation ... and lots of good food and drink.
Goals:
• To create an environment for Asian/Asian North American faculty in theological schools, colleges, and universities to reflect together on teaching and learning;
• To provide opportunity and resources for participants to develop projects related to teaching and learning in their disciplines;
• To explore ways teaching and research can be mutually supportive;
• To initiate local projects that will celebrate and encourage excellence in teaching;
• To explore issues of teaching and learning from cultural specificity, as experienced in different teaching and learning contexts.
