The seminar challenges graduate students to discover and hone their teaching styles, to develop a personal philosophy about teaching and learning, to learn about the teaching resources that are available to them throughout the university and elsewhere, to experimentwith designing engaging courses of study, and to discover that teaching can be a rewarding and stimulating element of an academic career. The seminar will discuss the major components of a course, including course goals, topic outline, use of readings, use of class time, evaluation of students, and evaluating yourself. In each case, we will consider the options available and their strengths and limitations.
