Description:
Please consider taking part in the Mobile Summer Institute on Undergraduate STEM
Education (MoSI). The MoSI is a new iteration of the renowned National Academies Summer
Institute (NASI) founded at the University of Wisconsin-Madison by Jo Handelsman (Yale) and
Bill Wood (UC-Boulder, Emeritus). This is an intensive workshop on undergraduate science
technology, engineering and math (STEM) education. NASI was developed in response to the
National Research Council report, Bio2010, which called for a transformation of science
education by improving classroom teaching and attracting diverse students to science.
By the end of the institute, you will have:
- practiced a variety of evidence-based teaching strategies to improve learning outcomes for all students through workshops, presentations and group work
- worked as a team to create teaching materials that implement these strategies
- begun to shift your focus from content and teaching to outcomes and learning
- practiced peer evaluation to promote reflective teaching practices
The CSU MoSI is funded by the Provost’s Office; the College of Natural Sciences; the College of Health and Human Sciences; the College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences; the Walter Scott, Jr. College of Engineering; and The Institute for Learning and Teaching (TILT).
