The course will be taught online by Dr. Peter Newbury. Peter joined the CLT as an educational developer in August and works remotely from Kelowna, BC.
For more than 20 years, he’s been teaching (math and astronomy), teaching about teaching and supporting those who teach at UBC Vancouver, UC San Diego, UBC Okanagan and now Dalhousie.
He advocates for a “pedagogy first” approach following the backward design model - establishing learning outcomes, creating assessments that provide summative and formative feedback and facilitating effective active learning strategies – and then selecting learning technologies that augment and enhance teaching and learning.
Course enrolment is limited to 24. To enrol, please complete the registration form. If you are one of the first 24 to enrol, Peter will connect with you soon, so you can prepare for the first session on Tuesday, October 20 or Wednesday, October 21.
If you submit the form after the first 24 registrants, you will be notified and added to a waiting list. To Register, please fill out this form.
