This Week for Graduate Students: CTLGrads Learning Communities
Upcoming Events
CTLGrads Learning Communities
CTLgrads Learning Communities are interdisciplinary conversations about teaching and learning topics, designed and 
co-facilitated by CTL Senior Lead Teaching Fellows. By participating in these discussions of the teaching literature with other graduate student instructors, you will develop new frameworks to innovate your teaching.
Learning Communities are planned as sequential conversations, so we encourage you to register for both sessions of a given LC. Upcoming Learning Communities include:

Essentials of Teaching and Learning
Essentials of Teaching and Learning workshops offer new or developing graduate student instructors approaches to better facilitate student learning and improve teaching practices. Join us at any one of these foundational workshops to deepen insight that you have started to develop at teaching orientations or in early teaching experiences. Attending this workshop and posting reflections satisfies a Foundational Track requirement for participants in the Teaching Development Program (TDP).
