11th Annual UW-La Crosse Conference on Teaching and Learning
This year the Conference on Teaching and Learning will include posters and demonstrations highlighting innovations related to teaching and learning by UWL instructors. These could take the form of traditional posters, a display or handouts on a table, or multimedia demonstrations on a laptop. These may be individual or collaborative efforts. This format is intended to encourage discussion and interaction between attendees interested in sharing ideas on teaching and learning.
The posters and demonstrations will be set up in Valhalla where faculty and staff can circulate to read and observe and interact with presenters.
