As we move through different stages in our careers, we meet mentors and colleagues who guide us and provide different perspectives and ideas. We also develop our own personal techniques that help us feel more confident in our abilities.

This month, we want you to share your advice with your colleagues. What teaching techniques do you find most effective in engaging students? Do you have any tips for handling large classes or grading? We’ll feature a different tip on our website each day from members of Carleton’s teaching and learning community to give you ideas that can be incorporated into your own teaching.

Email oavptl@carleton.ca with a few lines describing a teaching tip that has helped you in your career and you will automatically be entered into a draw for one of three $25 Campus Card gift certificates at the end of the month.
