Join colleagues from across Northwestern at Teaching-Line Faculty Mini-Retreats, quarterly gatherings created in response to what teaching-line faculty told us they value most: community, meaningful conversations, and opportunities to learn from colleagues and experts on topics that directly impact their work. This mini-retreat was intentionally designed with teaching-line faculty feedback and experiences at the center.

Selected by participants of the winter mini-retreat, our spring topic is strengths-based learning. This two-hour mini-retreat offers two interactive 45-minute sessions where you will hear from Searle Center Distinguished Fellows and Northwestern instructors on the practices they use in their courses to harness students’ strengths for deep learning. Between sessions, continue the conversation and share your own on-the-ground expertise with colleagues over a seasonal lunch.
