"Challenges and Rewards of Team-Teaching"
Professors Landy and Anderson will discuss their experiences in cross-disciplinary team teaching in a wide range of course-types, from large introductory classes, through small classes, to graduate seminars. Topics will include coordination problems, building a common understanding across disciplinary lines, engaging students from different intellectual backgrounds, and fruitful strategies for in-class interaction among faculty. They hope for an active discussion of questions about team-teaching experiences brought forward by the audience.
