Find all of CATL’s events and programming all in one place! We already have several exciting opportunities planned for Spring 2025, so mark your calendars.
“Teaching Today’s UWGB Students” Event Series & Canvas Course
As we head into a new semester, you may be asking yourself, who are the students in my classroom and why do they learn so differently than I did back in the day? Let’s ignore the fact that your college professors likely thought the same thing when you and your peers entered their classrooms and concentrate instead on how to engage and reach today’s students, the focus of CATL’s spring programming. Join us for “Teaching Today’s UWGB Students,” including three events and a Canvas shell of resources.
- Insights from Secondary School Educators on Our Current & Future Students | Monday, Feb. 17, 3:30 – 4:30 p.m.
- Growing Your Mindset | Friday, Mar. 7, 9 – 10 a.m.
- Teaching with Transparency | Friday, Apr. 4, 9 – 10 a.m.
Co-Writing Community
Tara DaPra, one of CATL’s Instructional Development Consultants, will lead another “Co-Writing Community” this semester via Zoom from 8:30 – 9:30 a.m. on Tuesdays & Fridays, starting Jan. 28. A co-writing community is a zero-obligation, zero-preparation, zero-outside work activity. Use this time to work on creative or scholarly projects that might otherwise get pushed aside by the demands of teaching. All faculty and staff are welcome!
Teaching with Technology Certificate (LITE 101, 201, & 301 Courses)
The Teaching with Technology Certificate program consists of three courses that act as steps in the certification sequence: Learning and Integrating Technology for Education (LITE) 101, LITE 201, and LITE 301. Participants will earn a badge after completing the first and second courses in the sequence, and the Teaching with Technology Certificate after completing the third course. Full-time instructors who complete the second and third courses may also be eligible for a stipend. Registration for LITE 201 & 301 is open through Friday, Jan. 31.
CATL Delivers
CATL will continue to bring services to you and your college or academic program. We will begin the semester with traditional college drop-in hours, but at some point in the term, we will transition to bringing programming directly to you instead.

“Teaching with AI” Course
During the spring semester, instructors will have the opportunity to continue working through the “Teaching with AI” self-paced Canvas course created by Auburn University. Those who already signed up have been added to the course and will have until Apr. 1, 2025, to complete it. For instructors who have not yet registered, stay tuned for more information in March and April about registering for a new version of the course. Additional opportunities for synchronous check-in meetings will also be shared with enrollees at a later date.
