Teaching Success Symposium

Each year at the college they host an internal Teaching Success Symposium (TSS). It’s organized by a cross-departmental committee but is associated mostly with the department I work in. Most likely because we’re the Pedagogy people. Professional development and consultation services. That’s us.

This year I had an opportunity to join my fellow consultants (cause my boss rocks and OK’d the time) at TSS. Some of my co-workers were presenting workshops during the day and I had to juggle my schedule to attend the ones I wanted to see. The highlight of my day was a session just before lunch. It was led by an instructor who facilitated one of the pilot online courses we offered this year. It’s really gratifying to watch someone who obviously loves what they do talk about a project that you were involved in – even it it was only on the periphery.

Today is my 1 year “anniversary” at the college. In lieu of cookies I am accepting coffee, ego stroking and Lindens (L$).

  1. Not sure what Lindens are but you are the greatest, you rock, you’re the best. Enough ego boosting? *hee* Happy 1 year anniversary at the college. I suggested at the last Breakfast Blogger’s get together we have a supper get together and everyone thought that was a great idea. So if it happens and you can make it, that coffee is yours :o)

  2. Lindens are currency in Second Life. They allow me to buy things like boats and helicopters. All work related. Honest.

  3. I am with Joy, but can’t think of new Kudos, so just read hers again and pretend I said it;-). Happy 1 year anniversary and I would send lindens you way, but I need all I can get;-).
