Effective Communication in Teaching and Learning for International Graduate Students and Postdoctoral Scholars: Part 2

In Part 1 of this workshop, we explored characteristics of a University of Calgary classroom environment, and strategies to engage students, communicate concepts, and ask and answer questions effectively.  In this hands-on session (Part 2), you will be provided with opportunities to practice effective communication strategies in the teaching and learning environment through case study, role play, and observation.  Whether or not you attended the first session, come to this workshop to discuss, talk, practice, laugh, reflect, give and receive feedback on communication skills.

• Identify strategies to handle a variety of situations that they might encounter in their teaching and learning role
•  Practice implementing strategies to communicate effectively in response to a variety of situations
• Analyze effective communication strategies, and provide and receive feedback to/from their colleagues

This workshop can be used toward the 2017-2018 Emerging Teachers Development Program.
