The Facilitator Development Workshop (FDW) is an intensive 40-hour workshop held over 5 days that prepares participants to deliver the Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) to others. Led by Trainers from the ISW Network, the core of the FDW is another ISW with the further skills of facilitation as the primary focus.

This workshop is a Question & Answer (Q&A) session focusing on the effective use of LEARN for TAs.

This webinar series will explore how faculty and staff are supporting and using practices for accessible teaching to benefit all students at the University of Waterloo. Each 1-hour session will include a half-hour presentation by staff or faculty and a half-hour of discussion. 

The Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) is an intensive, collaborative, and experiential learning model that uses videotaped micro-teaching and peer feedback sessions to support the teaching reflection and growth of both new and experienced instructors. The ISW promotes participatory learning and community building and encourages examination of teaching practices with feedback focused on the learning process rather than on the specific content of the lesson. Each participant will receive a widely-recognized certificate of achievement upon successful completion of the ISW, which requires 24 contact hours, over three or four days.
