Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW)
The ISW is a fun, intensive, interactive, four-day/28 hour workshop for new and experienced teachers. The workshop is peer-facilitated and peer-driven, designed to help you:
- identify and build on your existing strengths as a teacher
- develop new skills and techniques for student-focused and active-learning pedagogy
- create an interdisciplinary cohort of peers who are as passionate about teaching as you are
The ISW was developed more than 30 years ago by post-secondary instructors in British Columbia and it is now an internationally-recognized professional development program.
