On Monday, August 31, both new and seasoned faculty gathered together for two events: the Academic Affairs Convocation that welcomes new faculty and celebrates our award-winning, promoted, and long-serving\u00a0faculty members, and the Thompson Center for Learning & Teaching<\/a>‘s pre-convocation workshop titled “The Actual and the Possible: Cultivating Learning at UM-Flint.”<\/p>\n

The workshop featured sixteen faculty presentations, with representatives from\u00a0each school or college at UM-Flint, focused on innovative and effective teaching methods used in (or out of) classrooms.<\/p>\n

The College of Arts & Science was well represented with six faculty speaking on topics ranging from technology to storytelling.<\/p>\n

Brian DiBlassio discusses teaching musical elements online.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Brian DiBlassio<\/strong>, Associate Professor and Chair of Music and recipient of the Provost Teaching Innovation Prize, was the first CAS faculty member to present. He discussed the ways in which he brings music alive for online students–where formerly they had only static words on a screen to inform their lessons. By incorporating video, moving graphics, sound, voiceover, and popular media, DiBlassio is able to answer the “challenge of teaching arts purely through text.”<\/p>\n

Nicholas Kingsley<\/strong>, Assistant Professor from the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry and recipient of the Lois Matz Rosen Junior Faculty Excellence in Teaching Award, spoke to his peers about technology that works for both his teaching style and his students’ needs. From interactive\u00a0digital\u00a0presentations to a pen that allows recording and playback of his method for working through complex problems, Kingsley demonstrated how his technology choices serve students in the classroom and create resources for future use.<\/p>\n

Jill Slater<\/strong>, Lecturer of Biology, presented on this past spring’s Cell-ebration:\u00a0a science symposium she created to inform and inspire students from all of her classes. Slater combined more seasoned students’ experiences and newer students’ questions to present cellular research being done across her courses. Her event\u00a0engaged students in new ways and allowed there to be a focus on what happens after they\u00a0learn research\u00a0methodologies in lower level courses. All students came away with skills they can use later in their academic studies and in their professional and research careers.<\/p>\n

Thomas Henthorn<\/strong>, Assistant Professor of History, spoke on an oral history project from his class Gods in the City. Henthorn uses the lesson to emphasize listening and communication skills while students explore new topics and religion through their interviews with community members. He spoke about the value of an assignment that can’t be simply gathered from online sources. Said Henthorn, “as wonderful as technology is . . . most of the world’s important business happens face to face.”<\/p>\n

\"DSC_0105_LR\"<\/a>
Erica Britt talks about Vehicle City Voices and the stories of Flint residents.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Erica Britt<\/strong>, Assistant Professor of Linguistics in the English Department, continued with the storytelling theme by talking about her Vehicle City Voices<\/em> project. Britt has utilized both graduate and undergraduate students in her collection, coding, and presentation of stories from residents around the city of Flint. In addition to being a documentation of memories, her project is a study in the vocal patterns of speakers in Flint. Students created transcripts\u00a0and\u00a0developed word-level, phrase-level, and sentence-level analysis on their collected stories.<\/p>\n

Margaret\u00a0Ware<\/strong>, Lecturer in Biology, was the final CAS speaker of the day. In her discussion she showed how combining factual health histories with fictional characters allowed her students to have a more involved and engaged experience when completing a case study project. Students worked individually to create a story from lab data and then as a small group selected their favorite story or combined elements to create a new one. Ware noted the students were able to utilize a wide variety of skills, including the unusual combination of creative writing and scientific data collection.<\/p>\n

After all the presentations were made, participants had small table discussions to talk about their favorite methods from the day and also to share their own unique methods of teaching. The event was closed by TCLT’s Tracy Wacker who spoke to the joy of teaching and learning as she wished all a successful Fall 2015 semester.<\/p>\n

\n

The focus on UM-Flint’s teaching excellence continued later that afternoon at the Academic Affairs Convocation in the UM-Flint Theatre.<\/p>\n
