Next Teaching Circle is Oct. 1

We are bringing back the Teaching Circle! For those who are newer to OWU, these are lunch gatherings to share ideas, strategies, or challenges and connect with colleagues. You do not need to sign up–just come if you are able. But if you would be interested in particular topics, please fill out this Teaching Circle form, and I will try to find a faculty member willing to help facilitate peer conversation on that topic.

Questions? Contact Barb Bird
