Please join us for this year’s Let’s Talk Teaching Day on Friday, September 4 in HSB 104. The theme this year is Teaching for Transfer, and we are very fortunate to have as our keynote speaker Dr. Rosemary Polegato of Mount Allison University, a 2014 3M Fellow and an authority on student portfolios, whose address is entitled “Engaging Students in Reflection on Learning: Explanations, Exercises, and Portfolios.” Other presenters include Dr. Shannon Murray on “Teaching for Transfer” and Dr. Stacey MacKinnon on “People Aren't Asking Questions: Why That Is and What We Can Begin to Do About It at UPEI.” We will also present this year’s Janet Pottie Murray Award for Educational Leadership, and the day will end with a workshop conducted by Dr. Polegato based on her keynote address. Lunch will be provided, and, in deference to the date, this year’s Let’s Talk Teaching Day has been slightly shortened. Coffee and breakfast snacks will be served at 9:45, the day will begin at 10:00, and we plan to wrap up between 2:30 and 3:00. Oh, and please bring a new or recent syllabus for one of your courses for the workshop. If you have any questions, please email Gerald at the Faculty Development Office: fdo@upei.ca
