A workshop can be an effective way to provide information, develop instructional skills, and bring people in a department together to work on a specific issue or topic. As much as possible, CIDR likes to involve the experience and skills of faculty, TAs, and other members of a department in the process of planning and conducting the workshop. CIDR's Role CIDR staff are available to design and conduct workshops geared to meet the instructional needs of specific departments. Lead TAs to identify areas which might usefully be addressed in a workshop setting, to suggest workshop formats and training strategies, to conduct or coordinate the workshops, and to suggest other relevant campus resources.
CIDR staff can also make arrangements for rooms and equipment needed for workshops.
