Fall Teaching Orientation

The Fall 2012 teaching orientation is required for new instructors and TAs of 200- and 300-level English and Comparative Literature courses, though all current and future instructors and teaching assistants are welcome to attend. This orientation will cover English department and University policies and present information on teaching resources and tips. Undergraduate Studies Director Tom Moser and new Associate Chair Shirley Logan will be on hand to introduce themselves and answer questions. This semester's orientation will also address the *NEW* General Education curriculum being implemented this fall, including the updated Learning Outcomes to be included on all 200-level syllabi. (For more information in the meantime on the Learning Outcomes for your course, please see the sample syllabi at http://english.umd.edu/administration/faculty-staff/gen-ed.)

Please RSVP to adykema@umd.edu by Monday, August 20th.
