In spring 2015, CELTSS will sponsor a series of three workshops on Teaching First-Year Students. Particularly relevant to faculty teaching in the First-Year Foundations program, these workshops are open to all faculty who are interested in the specialized skills and teaching strategies that improve first-year students\u27 learning and help them to succeed academically. In this session, we will provide an overview of the workshops, introduce some of the research and best practices related to teaching first-year students, and work with participants on some assignments and activities that engage beginning college students
