Inclusive and Ethical Pedagogy Series: Teaching Larger Classes
Facilitated by Beth Seymour, Teaching Professor, Anthropology, Penn State Altoona. Panelists include: Tim Miyashiro, Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University Park & Fernanda Bonafini, Associate Teaching Professor, Department of Mathematics, University Park
Thursday, 9/25/2025, 12:15 p.m. - 1:15 p.m.
Via Zoom
The Inclusive and Ethical Pedagogy Series explores how instructors might implement inclusive and ethical pedagogy, as described in the Elements of Effective Teaching. Teaching larger courses presents unique challenges and opportunites. Fostering interaction and connecting with students can be challenging in a potentially impersonal environment. Larger courses can also create dynamic and supportive learning experience.
Join us for a discussion in which a panel of experienced educators will share their approaches to teaching larger courses. This session is ideal for instructors seeking to explore practical ideas, and participants are encouraged to share their own questions and experiences.
Registration will close 1 hour before the event starts. Registrants will receive a Zoom link at least 1 hour before the event.
