Hi Friend of the CTE,                                                                 

The fireworks celebrations may be over, but the CTE offers plenty of support to make a bang with your teaching. Submit a poster proposal for the Lilly Conference while spots still remain (and apply for a scholarship to attend for free). Mark your calendar for early fall programming, and engage resources we’ve curated to ignite students’ learning.

Upcoming Seminars and Events

Due to the topic’s popularity, the CTE is hosting two more book clubs on Bowen and Watson’s Teaching With AI during Welcome Week. We supply the books and facilitate the discussion (via Zoom). Book clubs are limited to 12 participants, first-come, first-served. 

News and Information

The 44th Original Lilly Conference on College Teaching (November 20-22 at Armstrong Student Center) is shaping up to be excellent! Don’t miss your chance for a spot on the program—submit a poster proposal while slots remain. Note: Proposals will be considered for an individual 45-minute slot if an opening arises. If you’ve never submitted a Lilly proposal before, check out this video for helpful support. 

The CTE’s external fundraising success has created a special opportunity for Miamians. We are thrilled to offer over 100 registration scholarships (excluding meals and preconference workshops) to Miami instructors, graduate students, and staff. Complete this short scholarship application to be considered. Please wait to register until you receive word on your application from LillyCon@MiamiOH.edu.
