Dear Dr. Mills,
Just wondering if the workshop is available online (for a fee) for non-members. If so, please let me know.
Stay positive, test negative ??.

One Day Workshop on Teaching Philosophy
PITTSBURGH, PA
The American Association of Philosophy Teachers (AAPT)
“To Improve The Quality Of Instruction In Philosophy At All Levels”
CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
Location: Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, PA
Date: Saturday, October 1, 2022
Time: 8:30am – 5pm
Seminar Leaders: John Koolage, Eastern Michigan University
Alida Liberman, Southern Methodist University
Andrew P. Mills, Otterbein University
Application Deadline: Wednesday, September 14
Description
Participants will read some of the best literature regarding how learning happens, how to design maximally effective courses, and how to improve classroom practice. The workshop is designed to enhance participants’ ability to make highly effective pedagogical choices that enable all students to flourish. The interactive sessions provide opportunities for participants to reflect with colleagues on how to individualize evidence-based best teaching practices to their own idiosyncratic teaching contexts and their own understanding about what matters most for inclusive pedagogy. Participants will learn how to identify and select challenging, transformative, and inclusive learning objectives and how to design and assess sequences of learning activities to make the achievement of those goals highly likely. The friendships and collegial relationships begun here can last a lifetime.
