The ECTL recognizes that graduate students play an important part in the UW teaching and learning community. We encourage students to utilize our programs and resources to develop their knowledge, skills, and abilities as instructors.

Programs

Graduate Student Teaching and Learning Symposium - The Office of Academic Affairs and the Ellbogen Center for Teaching and Learning sponsor a one-day teaching symposium for all graduate students who have teaching responsibilities at UW for the first time. The symposium occurs the week before fall and spring semester classes start. The fall symposium will be held on Friday, August 24th. Click here for more information and to register.

Graduate Student Teaching and Learning Seminar Series - This series of seminars is designed to address a spectrum of topics of interest to graduate students with teaching assignments. Advanced graduate students with significant success in teaching lead many of these workshops.

Course in College Teaching (GRAD 5910) - This three credit S/U course provides graduate students with a broad introduction to the teaching profession. Students gain knowledge, experience, skills, and technological competencies that contribute to success in the classroom or in work environments. This course will be taught in fall 2012.

Resources
