The Center for Teaching and Learning is offering a virtual Adjunct Development Day to support new and returning adjuncts in course development. The day will include workshops that are information driven but that also allow faculty to work in break out rooms to come up with ideas they can share back because we know that they learn as much from each other as they learn from us. Although some faculty may attend all day, and they are encouraged, CTL has designed this day to be one where they can pop in and out based on other obligations.
