Strategies and Tools is designed for new faculty at URI who seek to implement teaching practices that promote equity, diversity, and inclusive learning environments. This program will explore methods for aligning assignments with course learning outcomes and strategies to help students develop the skills necessary for academic success. The program also provides an introduction to key university offices and personnel who offer support for teaching excellence and professional growth at URI. We know that orienting to teaching at a new institution is more than a 3-day process. This program is therefore the first step and a required component for completion of URI\u2019s year-long New Faculty Teaching Pathway.<\/a> Additional details, including learning outcomes and schedule can be found here: Strategies & Tools 2026<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
