Visiting Speaker Series
2004-2005
The Visiting Speaker Series is a program
that allows the Emory Community to attend lectures by renowned members
of the academic community, on topics as varied as diversity in the classroom,
evolutionary and scientific theory, and critical thinking. Each year,
speakers’ lectures fall into an overarching theme for the yearly
series. Past themes have included “Diversity and Inclusivity in
the Classroom” and “Writing Across the Curriculum”.
This year’s theme is “Literate Science/Scientific Literacy",
which aims to promote discussion of the teaching of the natural and
physical sciences. Lectures are open to anyone who wants to attend,
space permitting.
Roundtable Luncheons 2004-2005
Roundtable luncheons occur throughout the academic
year on a variety of topics such as team teaching, building a teaching
portfolio, and enhancing teaching with technology. Lunchtime workshops
and discussions are usually held from 12:00-1:30 PM; boxed or catered
lunch is provided by UACT and sponsoring organizations. These luncheons
are open to faculty only.
Master Teacher Program 2004-2005
The Master Teacher Program is a two
and a half day seminar held each May, to provide faculty at whatever
stage of their career with ongoing training and tools for teaching excellence.
Seminars are held after the end of the spring semester; up to four faculty
members from each school who have demonstrated a deep commitment to
teaching are nominated by their deans.
