499 - Teaching Workshop. Teaching Introductory Sociology for New Instructors

Session Submission Type: Workshop

Description

The goal of this workshop is to help new instructors who are teaching introductory sociology or other first-year courses explore ways of designing and adapting a course to better fit with program goals and to help them design activities and readings which enable students to meet course learning goals. We will also present ideas for discussion from the SoTL literature about core content, variation in types of readings, and best practices for this course. Participants are encouraged to share and bring issues or questions they would like to discuss. We would also like participants to share their own list of core concepts and readings used/or to be used in their classes.
