Workshop Series for International Teaching Fellows
WORKSHOP SERIES FOR INTERNATIONAL TFs by the Bok Center
In response to requests and feedback from those of you who are international
TFs, the Derek Bok Center is offering this fall a series of workshops that
target some of the issues that you expressed interest in learning more about.
We hope you can join us for any or all of these workshops. For more
information, contact Virginia Maurer (vmaurer@fas) or Huicong Zhang
(zhang22@fas). Space is limited so please RSVP by the requested date for each
workshop. Light refreshments will be served. We look forward to seeing you!
Virginia and Huicong
Speaking in Public I
Tuesday, 10/9 7:00-9:00 pm
Communicating effectively in public is essential to you in your academic career,
whether it be in your role as a scholar or as a teacher. You lead classroom
discussions, give lectures, present at conferences and give job-talks and
interviews. Whether it’s because you come from another culture or because you
are a non-native speaker of English, some of you might find public speaking in
the U.S. intimidating and particularly challenging. In this workshop with voice
and speech specialist Rebekah Maggor, you will learn some practical ways to
improve your clarity in English and engage your audience through effective use
of voice and body. (Workshop will be repeated on 11/16). RSVP to vmaurer@fas
by 10/7.
Responding to Student Writing
Thursday, 10/25 5:00-6:30 pm
Learning to provide effective and precise comments to students’ written
assignments often proves to be a challenge for international teaching fellows.
Do you find yourself surprised by students’ writing ability? Are you puzzled
about how to phrase your comments in order to help students become better
writers? Are you spending all your free time grading students’ papers and
having no time for your own research? This workshop is designed particularly to
help international teaching fellows become effective and efficient in responding
to student writing. RSVP to vmaurer@fas by 10/23.
Speaking in Public II
Friday, 11/16 3:00-5:00 pm
This workshop is a repeat of the workshop on 10/9. RSVP to vmaurer@fas by
11/14.
Reflections: how to incorporate your teaching experience into a statement of
teaching philosophy
Thursday, 12/13 5:00-6:30 pm
It is the end of the semester and your teaching responsibilities are almost
finished. In the past few months, there must have been moments of joy as well
as frustration for you as a new teaching fellow. Don’t let them slip away
unnoticed. These are great materials to be incorporated into your teaching
philosophy. A statement of teaching philosophy is one of the most important
documents in your teaching portfolio. It often plays a vital role in job
search. This workshop will help you reflect on your past teaching experience
and begin to formulate your own teaching philosophy. You will have the
opportunity to share insights with experienced teaching fellows, critique
sample statements, and also practice writing your own. RSVP to vmaurer@fas by
12/11.

Thanks for All of You Joining Our Winter Cloth Shopping Tour Yesterday!
Dear Friends,
We would like to thank all of you who joined our winter cloth shopping tour yesterday.
First of all, we have to dedicate our best gratitude to our drivers yesterday. Your kind offer and generosity made this shopping tour possible.
We hope all you passengers had a great harvest yesterday and we appreciate your participation.
We appreciate the question brought up by several friends about the pricing of the fees that we collected yesterday. Here is our brief explanation as follows. When we announced this shopping tour to public two weeks ago, we had only two kind drivers confirmed their offer of drive available, and we had to think about collecting enough funding for paying car rental plus insurance and gas from passengers on basis of each car, while we were working hard to find the lowest rate of car rental. Taking the car rented yesterday for example: The total expense we paid for the car rental price for a compact car ($42.55, reserved with united.com's discount while this rate was not sold out yet) and for gas $12 was $54.55 in total. Divided by four, each of the four passenger would have to pay $13.64. This number did not include a Liability Insurance Supplement (LIS, $12.44), a Loss Damage Waiver (LDW, $25.99) nor Personal Accident Insurance/ Personal Effects Coverage ($5.50) which we would have definitely paid to rent more cars when a driver's credit card had not covered them.
We were indeed grateful that there were more generous drivers confirmed their offer of seats available for this tour.
Again, many thanks to all of you and cheers for the busy semester!
Good luck and take care!
