Open Classrooms Week
September 21 - 25
An opportunity for instructors to visit each other’s classes to observe different teaching practices, bring fresh energy to their own classrooms, and foster a sense of community and openness around teaching.
Ongoing programming:
Teaching Assistant Training
Offered in September and January
We offer pedagogical training to equip teaching assistants (TAs) with skills and strategies to effectively support student learning at McGill.
Beyond Grading
Each Fall we hold our annual symposium and strategy series on teaching and learning at McGill, providing a space for instructors to discuss their pedagogical strategies with each other.
Teaching for Learning Month
Each May, we dedicate the month to teaching and learning, in collaboration with units across McGill. Throughout the month, we plan a variety of facilitated events as well as self-access activities that can be completed asynchronously.
Course design
Our course design offerings are available in three formats to suit different schedules and approaches to planning.
Learning communities
Take part in interdisciplinary exchanges with colleagues from across McGill. Build community knowledge, engage in thoughtful discussion, and share classroom experiences.
Workshops
We regularly offer workshops for McGill instructors and units, on a variety of topics relevant to McGill’s diverse teaching and learning landscape.
Workshops are available either scheduled or on request.
