As mandated by the fire code the Department of Public Safety will be conducting fire evacuation drills in the month of October 2012.

When the evacuation alarm sounds all occupants in the impacted building or fire alarm zone are expected to evacuate the space and assemble outside the building. When the “all clear” is provided by the drill manager, occupants will be advised to re-enter the building/zone and return to studies/work.

Emergency Response Team members will be wearing their high visibility orange vests.

We thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation.

Should you have any questions, please contact Mary Ann Gregoris.

Tired of marking that assignment you have given for two semesters in a row? Discouraged by the lack of time and energy your students are putting into their work? Sometimes all you need is a new approach and some colleagues to help inspire you.

In this workshop we rethink our approach to evaluation in hands on fashion. Starting from the premise that testing does not necessarily mean tests and that assignments should extend knowledge not just involve its repetition, we consider how to design and develop engaging evaluation procedures. Bring an assignment you would like to revamp to this session, as we workshop new ways of approaching evaluation.

CTL presents Promoting Student Autonomy
View in full page
  • When:
    October 15, 2012 1:35pm
Date/Time: 
October 15, 2012 - 1:35pm
Where: 
North Campus, Room D236

Time: 1:35 - 3:20 p.m.

The transition to post-secondary studies from the high school environment is a time of new independence and responsibility for most students. While students may look forward to this change, they may not have the skills required to successfully negotiate the new realities of the adult academic environment. Research indicates that to become a self-directed learner, students must develop their sense of competence, relatedness, and autonomy. This session will explore means by which these sensibilities can be promoted in the classroom environment, laying the foundation for learner autonomy as a post-secondary student, and as a graduate to their professional field.
