The Teaching and Learning Orientation is offered to bring together educators new to MSU from across campus to explore and exchange ideas about quality and inclusive teaching, as well as find community among the large group of people who are engaged in the important work of creating the best learning environments possible for our students. The focus will be to assist educators in developing practical materials that are needed for immediate use in their teaching and to best prepare them for their courses and work with students.

In addition to materials provided in the D2L module, two additional initial sessions will be held where more in depth discussion and examples on important aspects related to teaching and learning will occur with future opportunities to gather for discussions to be scheduled.

Date: January 13, 2022 from 1:00 – 2:00 PM EST.
