08/19/25 - New to Teaching? We've Got Your "Easy Button"!

Topic Details

Description:

Welcome to Texas State! This engaging session is open to all faculty but tailored for faculty new to the classroom, offering practical, easy-to-implement strategies to engage your students and help them succeed in your course. Designed to unravel the mysteries of classroom teaching, we’ll address common challenges such as:

• "I just lectured on that. Why did everyone fail the quiz?"
• "When I ask a question in class, why does only one person (and a few crickets) answer?"
• "Why don’t students come to my office hours?"
• "How did they not know that assignment was due? It’s in the syllabus!"

Starting out in the classroom comes with a lot of questions—this session is here to help you tackle them with confidence. Join us to discover the easy button for a smoother and more rewarding start to the semester.

Tuesday, August 19 | 2 – 3:30 p.m. | Online via Zoom
