Practical strategies. Shared inquiry. \nSome teaching challenges are just plain wicked — they have no single cause\, no universal solution\, and they show up over and over in our classes. Think: student focus\, cell phones\, uneven preparedness\, pedagogical burnout\, and everything in between.\nThis series creates an honest\, grounded space for faculty to explore these wicked problems together. \nTo learn more about this 5-part series\, CLICK HERE! \nSESSION FOUR: Student preparedness\nWhat do we mean when we say students are “unprepared”? Who’s responsible for closing this gap? In this session\, we’ll unpack how preparedness is shaped by prior learning\, systems\, and course design\, and share ways faculty are navigating varied levels of student preparedness. Together we’ll explore strategies that build skills in context and explore research questions about what helps students become more ready to learn. \n\nFriday\, April 3rd | 3:00pm-4:00pm | Fernald Hall\, Room 102 \nREGISTER HERE URL:/citl/event/wicked-problems-in-teaching-student-preparedness/ LOCATION:102 Fernald Hall\, 102 Fernald Hall\, Orono\, 04469 CATEGORIES:CITL Workshops,Communities of Practice,Equity and Inclusion,Faculty Development,Grad Development,New Faculty,Teaching ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:/citl/wp-content/uploads/sites/266/2025/12/Wicked-Problems-in-Teaching.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260407T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260407T160000 DTSTAMP:20260516T181659 CREATED:20260227T200912Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260326T191319Z UID:10001727-1775574000-1775577600@umaine.edu SUMMARY:Title II Tuesday - Workshop Series DESCRIPTION:A little bit of content and accountability. \nThese 30 minute overview sessions will cover what is needed to meet Title II requirements by format followed by an optional 30 minute Q&A/work block to work on your course content.
