New Faculty Orientation--August 10-12, 2022
WELCOME TO GRAND VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY!
We are excited to welcome new faculty this coming Fall (2022) and are delighted to be offering this program IN-PERSON for the first time in two-years. We are still in the planning process for this event so check this page regularly as we'll update it frequently and as information becomes available. Should circumstances require we move this event to a virtual format, we are prepared to do that but remain hopeful that we can gather together in-person this coming August.
Orientation will focus on engaging new faculty in a collaborative learning experience focused squarely on student success, community building, and exploration or campus resources for both faculty and news students.
- Highlight critical information about the university, guiding new faculty to construct for themselves a greater understanding of (a) the mission, vision, and values of Grand Valley State University, (b) what is meant by student success, and (c) the hallmarks of a successful new faculty experience
- Model learner-centered teaching strategies (including interactive discussions, experiential learning, case studies, special topic choices)
- Foster a sense of community and build relationships among new faculty
- Motivate new faculty to see themselves contributing to a supportive, collaborative campus community
We look forward to meeting and engaging with our new faculty soon!
