At VinUniversity, we are committed to implementing evidence-based practices in teaching that have been proven to drive the best learning outcomes and student engagement, and to prepare university students to be confident and capable contributors to the workforce and the society.

To meet this commitment, the CIE supports training in principles and methods that promote active learning, effective use of academic technologies to promote student engagement and learning, and in creating inclusive, student centric classrooms (real or virtual).

CIE organizes twice a month Friday morning workshops on a teaching related topic of interest to faculty. The topics could be related to academic technology, particular pedagogy, an innovative approach, or just a discussion to share best practices or to explore.

The following sessions are planned in June:

• June 19: click here to learn more
• June 26: Using Panopto to create videos for teaching (this session will be recorded)

CIE staff host Office Hours for faculty to get hands-on help with creating/moving their courses to Canvas, the Learning Management System at VinUniversity.

Office hours: Online on Teams Tuesday and Friday at 10 am.
