SUMMARY:CEILS Faculty Orientation - Fall 2025
DESCRIPTION: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? \nThis 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. \nJoin 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. \n \nMore info here \nRSVP here

SUMMARY:Learning Assistant (LA) Program Faculty Learning Community - pre-quarter meet-up
DESCRIPTION:The Undergraduate Learning Assistants (LA) Program in the Sciences at UCLA is an evidence-based\, multidisciplinary instructional strategy\, in which undergraduate students who have succeeded in a course receive credit to learn how to help the next group of students succeed in that course. It is specifically geared toward large introductory science\, engineering and math courses.  LAs thus help facilitate active learning and collaborative instruction in discussion\, lab\, and/or lecture. \nIf you have LAs in Fall 2025\, this meet-up is designed to support you in discussing and finalizing any plans for LA implementation. In this shifting landscape\, this feels like a time when it’s particularly important to check in with and support one another. \nIf you don’t yet have LAs and you’re interested in meeting instructors who work with them\, you’re welcome to join and hear how folks are integrating LAs to create more effective courses. \nEmail LA Program Director Shanna Shaked at shaked@ucla.edu if interested in joining.
