Auburn University's Conversations in Celebration of Teaching

CCT 2015





Today, Auburn University celebrated its second Conversations in Celebration of Teaching, with lots of participation from faculty from all across campus.
For more information about the event, see http://wp.auburn.edu/biggio/cct/





Most exciting for me was the number of faculty who have been teaching in the EASL spaces and were showing off  how they have been engaging their students with the course materials.  Lots of pictures of students working hard.  Here are some of the folks who were presenting and what their topic was on -- I am hoping that down the line I can add some of their posters as well.


  • Emily Burns (Art):  Breaking Out of the College Bubble:  Using the EASL Classroom to Engage the Community Beyond Auburn
  • Ana Franco-Watkins (Psychology):  The Game of Life:  Active Learning Strategies Applied to Game Theory
  • Yasser Gowayed (Polymer & Fiber Engineering):  Connecting Science to Practice:  A Function-Based Teaching Approach to Engineering Design
  • Patrica Hartman (Libraries) and Sharon Roberts (Biological Sciences):  Teaching Students About Srouces Through Infographics
  • Stuart Loch (Physics):  Exploring Active Learning Techniques in a Flipped-Classroom:  Lessons from an Introductory Physics Course
  • James Zanzot (Biological Sciences):  Open-colleague Examination:  A Novel Approach to Testing Strategies in the Flipped Classroom
