All,
If you have an interest in teaching, or even if you are not sure, this
free resource might be useful. Please see the email below from Yaga
Richter. Let me know if you have any questions. If there are a few
folks who would like to try this out, it might be helpful to form a
discussion group.
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Thanks again for coming up yesterday to chat about UVisit!
This morning I came across a resource that I thought would be of use to
your post-docs that are considering faculty careers and/or have a strong
interest in teaching: a Coursera (Free/online) class entitled: "An
Introduction to Evidence-Based Undergraduate STEM Teaching"
https://www.coursera.org/course/stemteaching The class goes from Oct 6 -
Nov 23.
I've watched parts of Coursera classes before and they have always been
excellent. Even if you don't do the homework, the lectures typically are
great and they are done by experts in the field.
Anyways, I thought that would be a nice resource for those who are
thinking about teaching,
Have a great weekend,
Yaga
