6th Annual University-Wide Symposium on Teaching and Learning

Making Connections:
Fostering Integration of Learning

Wednesday, January 11, 2006
8:00-3:15 p.m.
Doubletree Hotel Bloomington
Bloomington, IL

 

You are cordially invited to share a day of presentations, conversations, and collegiality at Illinois State University’s 6th Annual university-wide Symposium on Teaching and Learning.

This year’s theme is “Making Connections: Fostering Integration of Learning.” This theme encompasses a broad array of topics such as making connections between technologies and teaching and learning goals, general education studies and majors, various learning experiences within majors, various learning experiences in outside activities, curriculum and co-curriculum, theory and practice, or writing and thinking.

The symposium will explore ways that teachers and professional staff can help themselves – and their students – integrate their often-fragmented experiences in higher education.  Presenters are ISU faculty and staff members who will share results and insights from projects, research, and experiences. We have more than two dozen proposals from departments and units throughout campus, which promises to yield a rich and stimulating program of presentations and panels.

We’ve chosen an engaging off-campus setting at the Doubletree Hotel Bloomington for the conference. Presenters and participants will enjoy informative and stimulating presentations, refreshments between sessions, warm collegiality, and a free lunch. Please join us!

Registration:

Registration for the symposium closed at 12 PM January 9th.

Symposium Presentation Materials Online:

Given the number of presentations at each time slot, you may not have been able to be at every session that interested you. Also, given the demands on faculty’s time in preparing for the upcoming semester, some may not have been able to make the Symposium at all.

So we're using the technology to expand access to Symposium content beyond its time and place. We have encouraged presenters to provide materials from their presentation, such as slides and handouts, as well as other related materials relevant to their topic.

Click here to access titles, abstracts and supplemental materials for each session.

We hope to expand this in future events, so let us know if you find this of value and any suggestions that you have (email us at teachtech@ilstu.edu).
