ERM Announcements, November 1, 2021

Posted on November 1, 2021 by mlande

Dear ERM members,

Happy November! Halloween has never been one of my favorite holidays, but last night, we took our son out for his first time trick-or-treating. He was a little unsure at first about walking up to doors and knocking, but once he realized that people would answer and give him candy, he really got into the process. It was a lot of fun celebrating the holiday with him and experiencing the newness of it vicariously.

I have also promised an ERM business meeting associated with FIE. Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, November 9 at 3 pm EST. I will send a calendar invite with a consent agenda by tomorrow. I’ve been working with your ERM officers to get all the updates pulled together. If you cannot make the meeting, I will record it and share the link afterwards. Looking forward to seeing some of your virtually soon!

All my best,

Allison

EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT: NETI-1A and 1B Online Workshops Open

The National Effective Teaching Institute (NETI) has been offering courses since 1991, reaching nearly 2500 participants from over 350 different institutions. We are particularly thankful that we have been able to continue to offer these valuable workshops online to meet the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. All NETI Workshops are conducted by Drs. Susan Lord, Matt Ohland and Michael Prince. Workshops are highly interactive and provide opportunities for the participants to plan applications of the content to their own courses. We will be offering the following two workshops this coming January:

NETI-1A: Introduction to Successful Teaching for STEM Faculty, January 2-3, 2022, 1:00 – 5:00 p.m. EST. This online workshop is designed for instructors who have taught for 1-5 years or more experienced faculty looking for an introduction to instructional design. NETI-1A focuses on effective strategies for getting started in STEM courses in both face-to-face and online classes, covering content traditionally offered in the in-person NETI-1 workshop. Topics explored in the NETI-1A workshop include: crafting meaningful learning objectives, developing effective assessment, designing policies to support student and faculty success, and common crises and their management in STEM classes.

NETI-1B: Strategies For Promoting Student Engagement, January 4-5, 2022, 1:00 – 5:00 pm EST. This online workshop is designed for instructors who have taught at least one year and is also useful for experienced faculty interested in improving their teaching. NETI-1B focuses on research-based strategies for engaging students in both face-to-face and online classes, covering content traditionally offered in the in-person NETI-1 workshop. Topics explored in the NETI-1B workshop include: enhancing student motivation, implementing proven student-engagement techniques (active learning), and engaging all students in an inclusive class environment.

While these workshops are offered online, the focus will be on how to engage students in both face-to-face and online classes. The registration fee for each workshop is $400 per participant ($800 for both), and includes an electronic version of presentation materials and other resources. We invite you to register for any of the workshops and to pass this notice along to faculty who would benefit from this program.

ERM Announcements, October 15, 2021

Posted on October 15, 2021 by mlande

Dear ERM members,

I hope those of you attending the Frontiers in Education Conference are having a good time either connecting in person or virtually. We will hold a virtual ERM business meeting in the next few weeks; I will send out a date and time soon. Lately, I have been writing a lot of recommendation letters, supporting edits of applications, and thinking about conferencing.

Dr. Monique Ross, introduced me to the phrase “lift as you climb.” This phrase is from a longer quote from Mary Church Terrell (more here) and is associated with the work by her and Sojourner Truth, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, Harriet Tubman, and Ida B. Wells in the Black suffrage movement. “Lifting as we climb” was adopted as the motto of the National Association of Colored Women (NACW) as they fought not only for voting rights but also for progress at the intersections of race and gender. This phrase has become a way to describe the consideration of where you have been and an intentional investment in others.

While I am not engaged in the same context or struggle as those august women, this phrase has resonated with me, and I think of it often. It is a reminder that supporting and nurturing other peoples’ talent is what lasts. It’s also a reminder that the efforts started by these women are far from over. Often academia focuses on an individual’s work or reputation; indeed, those aspects are the typical evaluation criteria for hiring, tenure, promotion, and awards. And, those systems have been historically constructed to benefit white cishet men. As ERM works towards our strategic goals to be a community where its members feel welcome, included, and that they have a voice as well as one that recognizes its members, I hope that conferences can provide ways to support, uplift, and connect with those who are new to the community and those who are behind us in their academic journey. We also have an opportunity, particularly those of us with privilege in our academic networks, to intentionally work against a system and lift others .

All my best,

Allison
