Doors Open

Curious about what happens in other classrooms across campus? Interested in how your colleagues facilitate peer review activities, active learning, team-based learning, group work, large lecture classes, and more? Come take part in this semester’s Doors Open! Doors Open is a program where various academic staff open their doors and welcome other academic staff into their classrooms. This initiative aims to build community, encourage collaboration, and give educators the chance to experience and learn from diverse teaching styles across campus. Our Doors Open hosts are happy to invite you into their classes and are excited to share their practices.

Please note that this program is a strictly non-evaluative opportunity to observe and learn from your colleagues.

Thank you to all who have participated!
