Registration Deadline: CIRTL Teaching as Research Series

Graduate students and post-docs from all disciplines can register for this series to learn about teaching as research, develop their own projects, and earn CIRTL Practitioner Level certification.

This six-part series will meet online from noon - 1 p.m. on the following dates:

  • Tuesday, Oct. 28

  • Thursday, Oct. 30

  • Tuesday, Nov. 4

  • Thursday, Nov. 6

  • Tuesday, Nov. 11

  • Thursday, Nov. 13

Over the course of these sessions, you will learn to use your disciplinary research skills to develop a research question related to teaching and propose a project that would allow you to investigate this question. If you are close to graduating and will not be able to implement a project, the work of designing and proposing a project is by itself a worthwhile endeavor! You must have already achieved the CIRTL Associate Level to participate (achieved either by taking a teaching-related course or completing five teaching-related workshops, at Iowa or elsewhere).
