The Faculty of Graduate Studies and the Centre for the Support of Teaching extend their congratulations to the following individuals who have completed the University Teaching Practicum since our last report in Core (February 2004):
The University Teaching Practicum is a self-directed program of professional development in university teaching for graduate students. Through this program participants engage in a process of in-depth learning about their own teaching - reflecting on their practice, analyzing their approach, applying new strategies and techniques, and documenting their experience. At the same time, they have opportunities to deepen their understanding of pedagogical principles and of student learning theories, and to participate in discussions on all manner of issues related to teaching and learning. For further information about the University Teaching Practicum, please contact the CST.
