Are you thinking about teaching First-Year Seminar (FYS), or just want to learn more about how it supports our incoming students? First-Year Seminar is taught by full-time and part-time faculty from across the campus and is an excellent way to introduce your discipline and perspective to students while supporting their learning and enhancing their experience at Bellevue College. FYS is proven to improve students’ success and retention—data from our 2022-2024 study shows our students are more prepared for their coursework and move more confidently toward their goals after taking FYS 101. This workshop is a great introduction to FYS curriculum and approaches to students’ success and is also part of the first session of training for those interested in teaching a section of FYS 101.
While there is no stipend for attending this workshop on its own, faculty participants may elect to continue on to complete the full 6-hr. paid FYS instructor training (to be scheduled).
No registration needed – join via Teams
2 PD Hours – and satisfies 2 hrs. of 6-hr. paid FYS instructor training
Open to faculty and staff. Reach out to Jeremiah Allen, FYS, for more information. Offered in partnership with First-Year Seminar and Faculty Commons.
