Teaching large classes poses special challenges on almost every level: engaging students in class, providing students with support outside of class, and managing the grading load. Join your colleagues for a discussion of favorite practices to address all these issues. Faculty who may be facing these issues for the first time may find this session especially helpful, but all faculty are invited to share their ideas and learn from their colleagues. Please peruse ideas in the Teaching Large Classes Guide of the University of Maryland’s Center for Teaching Excellence as starting points for the discussion:  http://www.cte.umd.edu/library/teachingLargeClass/guide/ch3.html 
Lunch will be provided.
