Start the semester with confidence and coordination
The Pre-semester Teaching Institute (formerly Ready, Set, Teach!) is offered before the start of the spring and fall semesters. Whether you are teaching for the first time or returning, the institute will give you:
- Focused time to think about your teaching
- Ideas for new, evidence-based approaches you can apply right away
- Connections with teaching colleagues
