Welcome to YOUR space.
As adjunct instructors, our job is to create "spaces" -- in brick and mortar classrooms, in Blackboard, and beyond -- where learning can take place. We might have divergent reasons for serving as adjuncts but we share a common objective -- to facilitate deep and life-long learning for adults. That makes us a community of shared practice, and this blog is space we are reserving to speak directly with that community. It is our space for sharing ideas about teaching and learning.
So what can you expect to read when you view this blog? Posts might center on developing ideas regarding facilitation, feedback, assessment, classroom management, adult learning, technology, or learning theory. Or perhaps we will discuss a new book or journal article on educational practices. We also want to recognize the work that you are doing in your classrooms. Tell us what you are finding through your own process of trial and error. Yes, this also is a place for stories about good teaching.
The blog will be run by members of the Faculty Development and Curriculum Design team. However, please note that each of you can provide your own personal comments to each blog entry. We hope discussions ensue.
We look forward to sharing this learning space with you.
