Teaching Squares: A Practical and Approachable Way to Get Inspired, Reflect on Your Teaching and Connect with Colleagues!  

Are you feeling isolated or curious about what goes on in other classrooms? Meant to spur personal reflection rather than peer evaluation, the Teaching Squares Program offers faculty a chance to get inspired and gain new insight into their teaching.  

The Teaching Squares program is flexible and easy to join no matter which campus you are on or whether you teach online or in person. It will run for the Spring term and will start with a kick-off session facilitated by the CTE. After this, Squares organize their own schedules while the program offers guidance and a gentle structure.
