Submitted by Tamara Bauer

NFI Logo

The New Faculty Institute will host a virtual event from noon to 1 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 27.

The topic will be "What do K-State students need from faculty?" The session will be an opportunity to engage with current students to address the following questions — and more:

  • What do you want faculty to know as they continue to develop face-to-face, hybrid and online courses?
  • What do you wish faculty would do more or less of to support your learning?
  • How do we increase engagement and participation in the classroom?
  • What should our faculty know about technology and student learning and engagement?
  • How do you become a teacher that students love to learn from?
  • How do we get buy-in from students in class, and get past the "what's on the test" mentality?
  • How do we collaborate with our students in the learning process?
  • What challenges and opportunities are students facing today?

RSVP here and a Zoom calendar invitation will be provided prior to the event.

The New Faculty Institute is a program hosted by the Teaching and Learning Center for new faculty in their first or second year at K-State. The New Faculty Institute provides networking and professional development opportunities to assist new faculty in becoming successful educators and researchers at Kansas State University.
