Welcome to EDCI 943: Principles of College Teaching
Principles of College Teaching is a graduate-level course offered both fall and spring semesters to graduate students and faculty through the College of Education. The course is designed to help you think about teaching and learning at the college and university level. You will have the opportunity to develop or enhance teaching skills as a result of your work in the class, although the development of particular teaching skills is not the exclusive aim of the course. What you gain from the course will depend upon you -- your focus and your effort.
Dr. Victoria Clegg (vclegg@k-state.edu) teaches Principles of College Teaching. She is the Director of the Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning (CATL) at Kansas State University, and consults and collaborates with faculty groups and individuals to enhance classroom instruction at K-State.
Mr. Ben Ward (bward@k-state.edu) is an instructional designer in the Information Technology Assistance Center. He joins the instructional team for the course because all those who teaching in the present and the future will need to learn a thing or two about ways to facilitate student learning by using technology efficiently and effectively in both the face-to-face classroom and the online environment.
