Facilitate Adult Learning through University of Virginia’s Online Adjunct Faculty Academy

The Adjunct Faculty Academy consists of a series of noncredit online seminars especially designed for individuals

holding advanced degrees who are interested in teaching at the college and university levels. Seminars consider strategies to: teach adults effectively; integrate adult learning principles; focus on expectations and challenges of teaching adults in academic settings; and obtain adjunct teaching opportunities. Eight seminars are offered through

the Academy. A certificate of completion is awarded to those individuals completing seven seminars. All seminars are offered asynchronously online and are facilitated by experienced U.Va. faculty. For more information, visit http://www.scps.virginia.edu/certificates/facilitate.php.

The Myra Sadker Foundation now offers financial support to teachers, doctoral students and undergraduates committed to promoting gender equity. To learn more about these possibilities, or to find some useful links and articles, you can visit our new website at www.sadker.org (And yes, please share these new resources with interested colleagues and friends.)
