UBC Library now subscribes to the online newsletter, The Teaching Professor. This subscription was a joint purchase between UBC Library, CTLT (Vancouver) and CTL (UBCO).
From The Teaching Professor website: “The Teaching Professor was founded in 1987 with a simple goal in mind: Create a newsletter that helps college faculty improve their teaching, share best practices, and stay current on the latest pedagogical research.
Each week readers can expect thought-provoking and actionable advice on a wealth of critical topics, including:
- Improving student learning
- Designing effective activities and assignments
- Energizing and re-inspiring yourself in mid-career
- Promoting academic integrity
- Responding to course evaluations and feedback
- Dealing with difficult students
- Getting students to read what’s assigned”
UBC Education Library is excited by this announcement and expects this newsletter will be a popular, frequently accessed resource in our collection.
