CEILS Faculty Orientation - Fall 2025
2025-09-11 14:00 - 17:00 (America/Los_Angeles) | Zoom link emailed to RSVPers
Are you new to UCLA? Are you teaching at UCLA for the first time? Are you teaching a new course or a large-enrollment course for the first time? Do you have questions about effective ways to welcome students into your class on the first day? Are you concerned about your exams being both fair and rigorous? Are you wondering how to effectively work with your TAs?
This orientation is specifically designed for folks teaching their first course in Fall 2025, and anyone teaching their first large-enrollment course. In the last hour, we will be discussing tips for how to work effectively with your TAs and to adapt assignments or assessments if you have less TA support than expected. In addition to having resources around logistics and BruinLearn (Canvas) setup, we’ll also discuss course and grading structure, syllabus design, how to manage student questions and engagement in large classes, and getting ready for the first day of class.
Join us on Thursday, September 11, 2-5 pm on Zoom. RSVP Here by September 10. Once you RSVP, we will send a Zoom link and additional resources.
