"The seminar was the best and most productive time
I've ever spent with academic colleagues discussing
teaching and pedagogy. I suggest to any faculty who
haven't taken this seminar, that it is the best
investment you can make in your own teaching, regardless
of how much or how little you have taught before."
James Luke
Faculty, Social Science

"I felt very valued within the
seminar, as if the skills that I have
acquired over the years were worthwhile, but
not yet honed. And, my conception of
teaching as a skill that needs constant
improvement was validated."

"Until now, I sort of thought that lecture
was the way to teach college and that anything
else was just 'touchy-feely' hokum. I
certainly have a new view on teaching. I
think my conversion' was due in large part to
the way the class was conducted, in that you
'practiced what you preached."
- Jim Redding, Art Design & Multimedia
