Practical strategies. Shared inquiry. \nSome teaching challenges are just plain wicked — they have no single cause\, no universal solution\, and they show up over and over in our classes. Think: student focus\, cell phones\, uneven preparedness\, pedagogical burnout\, and everything in between.\nThis series creates an honest\, grounded space for faculty to explore these wicked problems together. \nTo learn more about this 5-part series\, CLICK HERE! \nSESSION FIVE: How to get students to do their work \n\nWednesday\, April 22nd | 3:00pm-4:00pm | Fernald Hall\, Room 102 \nREGISTER HERE URL:/citl/event/wicked-problems-in-teaching-session-five/ LOCATION:102 Fernald Hall\, 102 Fernald Hall\, Orono\, 04469 CATEGORIES:CITL Workshops,Communities of Practice,Equity and Inclusion,Faculty Development,Grad Development,New Faculty,Teaching ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/citl/wp-content/uploads/sites/266/2025/12/Wicked-Problems-in-Teaching.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260423T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260423T153000 DTSTAMP:20260520T145601 CREATED:20260106T210042Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260106T210042Z UID:10001670-1776952800-1776958200@umaine.edu SUMMARY:AI Teaching Lab: Using AI for practice\, feedback and role-play (In-person) DESCRIPTION:Generative AI is a part of students’ academic lives.  The challenge for instructors is not whether to “allow” AI – but rather how to design for student thinking\, judgement and learning.  \nThis 5-part series is for instructors who want dedicated work time to build out aspects of their course. Each session is a structured working studio where faculty revise their own course materials and receive peer feedback.  \nWant to learn more about this series? CLICK HERE \nSESSION FIVE – AI Teaching Lab: Using AI for practice\, feedback and role-play \nBring: A learning outcome that would benefit from practice\, perspective taking or feedback \nBuild: An AI-supported practice with designed prompts \nLeave With: A discipline specific activity that invites AI as a partner \nApril 23rd | 2:00pm-3:30pm | Fernald Hall\, Room 102 \nREGISTER HERE \n  \n  URL:/citl/event/ai-teaching-lab-using-ai-for-practice-feedback-and-role-play-in-person/ LOCATION:102 Fernald Hall\, 102 Fernald Hall\, Orono\, 04469 CATEGORIES:CITL Workshops,Communities of Practice,Faculty Development,Grad Development ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/citl/wp-content/uploads/sites/266/2025/12/AInew.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260424T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260424T110000 DTSTAMP:20260520T145601 CREATED:20260107T182233Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260107T182233Z UID:10001694-1777024800-1777028400@umaine.edu SUMMARY:CoP: Fundamentals of Teaching in Higher Ed (In-person) DESCRIPTION:Recently hired faculty are invited to join a discussion group focused on fundamentals of teaching in higher education.

Open to both new and experienced scholars of teaching and learning\, this program offers a structured space for faculty to develop\, draft\, and refine Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) projects—whether preparing an IRB for the first time or submitting a well-developed manuscript. \n \nThrough weekly sessions alternating between focused writing labs and collaborative learning opportunities on relevant topics\, participants will benefit from peer accountability partners\, guided reflection\, and dedicated writing time to support focused progress. As a group we will also plan for a capstone session after the semester for closure and final drafting. Whether new or experienced in SoTL\, this circle offers the structure\, community\, and momentum needed to move your project forward. \n\n\nWeekly on Fridays from 12:00pm – 1:00pm | Fernald Hall\, Room 102\n\nLEARN MORE & REGISTER HERE URL:/citl/event/cop-the-sotl-writing-circle-in-person/2026-04-24/ LOCATION:102 Fernald Hall\, 102 Fernald Hall\, Orono\, 04469 CATEGORIES:CITL Workshops,Communities of Practice,Faculty Development,Grad Development,New Faculty,Teaching ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/citl/wp-content/uploads/sites/266/2025/07/Writing.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
