Professional Development in Evidence-Based Teaching Series
SABER is pleased to announce a new opportunity: the Professional Development in Evidence-Based Teaching (PDET) Seminar Series, which will run from the fall of 2024 through the spring of 2025. This new seminar series was conceptualized in response to member requests for SABER to 1) offer more year-round programming, and 2) provide more opportunities for professional development that connect the Biology Education Research (BER) findings that characterize the organization with the mission of SABER to improve post-secondary biology education. Seminars will be given by experts in the field who have demonstrated translatable research and sometimes sponsored by education-centered companies that offer products to further enhance evidence-based pedagogy.
Seminars are 1-hour and begin at 11 am PT/ 12 pm MT/ 1 pm CT/ 2 pm ET on Fridays.
