Case-Based Learning Journal Club

Graduate students from across campus are invited to an intellectually stimulating Journal Club where we’ll discuss research in teaching and learning. This Journal Club is part of an assignment in the Graduate course; UNIV*6800 University Teaching: Theory and Practice (UTTP), and is facilitated by a student in this course. It is an excellent opportunity to learn and discuss important ideas in a collaborative learning environment. Please feel free to send this along to other graduate students you think would be interested.
