PAEA Basic Skills Faculty
Development Workshop
March 2006
Denver, Colorado
PAEA, through its Faculty Development Institute (FDI),
will once again offer the Basic Skills Faculty Development Workshop
in Denver, Colorado, in early March. When details become available,
faculty will be updated by e-mail.
Past participants have been overwhelmingly positive
in their evaluation of this workshop, which will focus on didactic
skills and provide the basic knowledge and skills necessary for course
and curriculum development. Other areas that will be addressed are
the use of various teaching and assessment strategies, technology
in teaching, student counseling and advising, time management, and
self-assessment and career planning in the academic environment. The
workshop will offer an opportunity to explore these issues through
an experiential process that includes a variety of adult-centered,
active learning techniques that can be readily adapted to the classroom
or wider academic setting.
Once details become available, faculty are encouraged
to register early. Participants will be limited to 25 and should be
the most junior of PA faculty with less than two years experience
in roles other than program or medical director. Participants must
also make a commitment to attend the workshop for the entire two days.
Please reserve the early days in March on your calendar
and anticipate receiving further details by e-mail.
