Dear grad students and postdocs,

This could be excellent training and also strong on your CV if/when
applying to jobs that involve teaching.

*College STEM faculty and future faculty are invited to apply to attend a
2018 Summer Institute on Scientific Teaching.*



The Summer Institutes on Scientific Teaching are intensive, multi-day
workshops during which STEM faculty and future faculty learn strategies for
enhancing student learning through the principles of scientific teaching.
Participants engage in interactive sessions, work in small groups with
trained facilitators, and present instructional materials for feedback and
review. Participants will observe, evaluate, and collect a portfolio of
innovative teaching approaches, instructional materials, and practical
strategies that can be adapted to their own teaching environments. Alumni
view the experience as a great success and overwhelmingly report that it
has a lasting impact on their teaching.



The 2018 Regional Summer Institutes on Scientific Teaching will be held:



June 18-22 - California at the University of California, San Diego

*Application Deadline March 30*



July 9-13 - Northwest at The Evergreen State College

*Application Deadline June 9*



July 16-20 - Gulf Coast at Louisiana State University

*Application Deadline June 10*



July 22-26 - Northeast at the University of Connecticut

*Application Deadline May 1*



We welcome applicants from any institution or geographic area to apply to
any of these four regional sites. If you or someone you know is interested
in developing and disseminating effective and empirically-validated ways of
teaching STEM subjects, please consider applying to attend a Summer
Institute on Scientific Teaching or forwarding this message to a colleague.
