Navigating the Transition to Professor: Reflections on First-Year Teaching
This session aims to help participants navigate becoming a professor by sharing experiences and identifying peers and practices in support of this transition. Two new faculty will begin by reflecting on their experiences in navigating this transition, including their successes, challenges, & utilized resources. Participants will then engage in breakout discussion groups to further consider these topics in relation to their own careers. Finally, presenters will discuss how their research around mindfulness and listening reveals some practices that may help to reduce stress and build positive relationships during the transition to becoming a professor.Author(s):
