Master the Craft: Touching Students' Lives Through Our Teaching

File pdf 240KB

Many faculty were inspired to become educators by teachers who touched their lives and want to recreate that experience for others. We will explore the phenomenon of touching student lives through teaching. We define "touching student lives" as facilitating a breakthrough in an important area of the student's life. It’s a “share and learn” session in which everyone can get involved and share ideas. The session will advance the teaching “game” of the presenters and participants by raising awareness of the possibility of touching student lives and finding new ways to do so under a variety of classroom conditions.
