📚 Teaching for the first time or returning after a break? Here are some valuable insights from our recent talk, "Navigating Your First Course: Tips, Tools, and Best Practices", moderated by Emilie Gobeil-Roberge.   Key takeaways on course planning: ✔ Define clear learning objectives: Use tools like Bloom's Taxonomy to set action-oriented goals for students. ✔ Structure with intention: Start with challenging material early on (weeks 2-3) when engagement is high, then sprinkle in theory later. ✔ Mix up teaching methods: Avoid repetitive methods like having students read translations line by line —try interactive discussions, workshops, and peer teaching instead.   Teaching requires creativity and careful planning. A well-structured course can make all the difference in keeping students engaged and learning actively!   #Teaching #CourseDesign #Academia #PhDlife

The tips shared in "Navigating Your First Course" are a reminder of the importance of mixing theory with practice, especially in fields like ours where hands-on application is key to understanding complex concepts.
