Discipline-Specific Pedagogies (YELC 6251 and 6252) – 2 credits
Offered with instructor consent
In this sequence, early-career faculty co-design, individualized experiences with an Elkana Center mentor to create a structured approach to their teaching development. Faculty elect one of two tracks, both of which emphasis the reflective
implementation of scholarship in the field of teaching and learning (SoTL) in their own, discipline-specific teaching practices. They may elect to structure this module by designing and carrying out their own teaching-related research. Alternatively, they may engage in a series of teaching-related workshops that they then apply and reflect on in their own teaching practice.
This course sequence can also be replaced by elective courses (also open to CEU doctoral students – see above). Or, with the consent of the program director, they may obtain credits from summer or external courses on teaching.
