Teaching Wheels 2023 (February 13, 2023 to June 16, 2023)
Inspire and refresh your teaching in 2023 with Teaching Wheels! Interested in seeing how other faculty at York are designing and delivering their courses? Want to get some feedback about an aspect of your own teaching? Join us for this flexible peer-observation program in which participants observe each other’s courses as guests. Together we will take stock of different approaches to teaching practice, share strategies, feedback, and insights with one another, and enhance our own teaching through dialogue and reflection.
This program is designed to accommodate participants teaching in either (or both) the Winter or Spring semesters, whether in online, blended, or face-to-face courses. All peer observations are coordinated to meet the needs of participant schedules. All other program activities can be completed asynchronously online, with options for synchronous online participation throughout.
In order to successfully complete Teaching Wheels, you must:
- Complete a short asynchronous onboarding lesson
- Observe two classes
- Be observed in two of your classes
- Complete three out of four themed check-ins (asynchronous or synchronous options)
- Complete a short asynchronous wrap up activity
