CASTLE Provides New Faculty Engagement Opportunity through a Pedagogical Happy Hour
October 26, 2016
CASTLE welcomes faculty to join the conversation at a newly implemented Pedagogical Happy Hour, funded by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. The Pedagogical Happy Hour provides a casual learning environment for faculty to share ideas about STEM teaching and learning; while enjoying refreshments.
This is an interesting pedagogical method of having a classroom taught in reverse, where students will learn at home and do work in the classroom. Faculty who plan to attend can register by emailing Flipped Classrooms. Each Pedagogical Happy Hour highlights a faculty member who will speak about a STEM teaching method that they use in their classroom. This month’s Pedagogical Happy Hour on Thursday, October 27th features Christopher Weyant, Ph.D., speaking on the teaching method, hhmiprogram@drexel.edu
Future speakers include Donald McEachron Ph.D., on December 1st, and Daniel Marenda, Ph.D., on January 26th. More information forthcoming.
