Teaching philosophy online (Zoom series)

We (Ian Schnee and Paul Franco) are lecturers at the University of Washington, and we have organized a Teaching Philosophy Online series to be held over Zoom. 

Currently, we have two sessions planned. The first will be held this Thursday, March 26th, 12 - 1 EST (panelists and the link for the meeting can be found below). The second will be held the following week (details TBD).

The sessions are meant to be relaxed and informal, and the audience will be able to participate via Zoom's chat function. We hope the sessions provide an opportunity to talk through the challenges we are facing, and to hear ideas about them from our volunteer panelists. We feel we have a great group representing a range of perspectives: mixing those with a lot of experience teaching in online environments with those doing it for the first time; teachers at SLACs, community colleges, and research universities; as well as senior faculty, junior faculty, and graduate students.

Here is the meeting link for Session 1; panelists:

• James Genone (Minerva Schools)
• Fritz McDonald (Oakland University)
• Jon Rosenberg (Northwest Vista College)
• Cat Saint-Croix (University of Minnesota)
• Lindsay Whittaker (University of Washington)
• Audrey Yap (University of Victoria)

Since we're organizing on short notice and everything is in flux these days, the line-up is subject to change, of course!

Session 2 panelists:

• Audrey Anton (Western Kentucky University)
• Mara Harrell (Carnegie Mellon University)
• Jonathan Milgrim (University of Washington)
• Janice Moskalik (Seattle University)
• Kate Padgett Walsh (Iowa State University)
• Justin Tiehen (University of Puget Sound)
• Jake Wright (University of Minnesota)

We have created a form where folks can register if they're interested in receiving reminders and a link to a recording of the session if they can't make it live. (Registration is not required.) The form also provides a place to express interest in various topics that we may try to cover in the webinar.

We hope to see y'all there!

Ian and Paul

Sounds great! The registration form shows up as "restricted" when I click on it. Not sure if that's a problem on my end or a problem with the form.

Hi Daniel. Thanks for the heads up. The link for the form should be working now.
