Faculty Mentoring

CELTSS Faculty Mentoring – Spring 2023
This spring, CELTSS Mentoring will be holding regular meetings on two topics.

The planning/scheduling your time group will hold short, half hour meetings to discuss tips for time management, scheduling, and general efficiency. We cover a range of topics from organizing outlook to weekly planning. We would love to have you attend and share your tips and learn some new ones.

The Grading for Equity group will be holding meetings to discuss grading pedagogy with the intention of increasing equity within our classrooms. 

Please contact Cara Pina (cpina1@framingham.edu), Director of Mentoring, with any questions you may have.
