这是什么??
The summer syllabus workshop sequence presents the opportunity for new and existing faculty to enhance their focus on diversity, 股本, 和包容. The workshops are led by experienced BiCo colleagues who work in dialogue with students trained in pedagogical partnership through the 教与学学院. Participants will be guided to consider the ways that their syllabi, 在广泛的领域, 满足需求, and goals of diverse student learners and direct attention to the ways that 股本 literacy, 反种族主义教育, and techniques of decolonization are purposely considered. Creating a community of individuals who are exploring syllabus development helps to encourage 协作, 反射, 和 consideration of multiple perspectives, and establishes pathways out of what Shulman called the “pedagogical solitude” that has sometimes limited and burdened the hard work of teaching.
History of the Syllabus Workshop Sequence
现在已经是第15年了, this project was originated and led for the first several years by Alison Cook-Sather, Professor of Education and Director of the 教与学学院 (TLI) at 推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜. 从一开始, it has exemplified the hallmark of the TLI -- pedagogical partnership -- and has included students with training and experience as Student Consultants in the design and delivery of each session. This valuing of student voice and students as knowers in pedagogical process affords workshop participants a unique opportunity to think with and learn directly from students currently taking courses at the Colleges as well as recent alums.
From the TLI emerged two opportunities to step out of "pedagogical solitude":
- Pedagogical Partnerships with Undergraduate Student Consultants. These can be semester- or year-long partnerships (which include weekly classroom observations and weekly meetings with the consultant) or short-term partnerships (e.g., one-time session to gather mid-semester feedback). Student Consultants bring their own individual perspectives as students (not an omniscient or representative student perspective) and skills to engage in discussion. They do not have any definitive answers or solutions to perennial pedagogical challenges, and thus the expectation is not that you should simply implement anything they suggest. 而, dialogue with Student Consultants constitutes a newly informed conversation about classroom practice.
- 开放式教学对话. These are discussions of any pedagogical issues that faculty and staff members wish to explore together. We discuss faculty/staff-proposed topics such as: question framing and discussion facilitation; developing effective assignments; organizing effective presentations that are useful not only for the presenter but for the entire class; communicating about and using office hours; and more. Sometimes, TLI student consultants come to share their perspectives as well. You may drop in to one or two sessions when you have time and inclination, or you may participate regularly in sessions on either campus or both campuses. These sessions will be held in late afternoons and at lunch on selected days throughout the year.

This website is offered as a resource for faculty in all stages of syllabi development - origination (before), 开发过程(期间), 和修改阶段(后). On the 工具和资源 page, you will find tabs to each of the areas.
*A note on the intentionality and difficulty of imagery*
它是什么? 看起来像 创建和重新思考教学大纲?
While choosing images for the pages of this website, we saw how connected this question is to the larger project of this website: to develop syllabi that honor diversity, 促进公平和包容, and spur decolonizing practices of thought.
The images on these pages are offered as a way of steering away from mainstream imagery. 他们可能会停下来. They may invite curiosity about what, after all, syllabus design deals with and relates to?
These images draw on the examples of growth, 协作, change and survival found abundantly in nature. 在这里, much inspiration comes from adrienne maree brown’s thinking in Emergent Strategy and beyond, celebrating the ways of emergence 和ir lessons for our learning. Also, inspiration is found in the many survivals of living things.
