Book Group
The Faculty Hub often sponsors a book club for faculty and other instructors to promote discussion about contemporary topics in teaching and scholarship. Post-discussion, the Faculty Hub collects what has been learned and produces recommendations or additional resources for the faculty at large.
Early Career Faculty Seminar
This initiative aims to provide early career faculty with structured opportunities to build community and connection among colleagues and to receive targeted professional development related to teaching.
Faculty Hub Associates
Faculty Hub Associates are full-time faculty who dedicate some of their time (with compensation) to support faculty development at UR.
Faculty Hub Conversations
Periodically throughout the semester, the Faculty Hub hosts informal, interdisciplinary conversations (50 minutes) around a topic of shared interest. The goal of these conversations is to provide faculty with opportunities to share knowledge and practices with one another, to ask questions and get feedback from other faculty, and to build community and connection with colleagues from across campus.
Inclusive Pedagogy
This initiative aims to enhance the use of inclusive pedagogies at the University of Richmond by providing faculty with opportunities to deepen existing knowledge of inclusive teaching practices and develop new strategies for ensuring that all students feel welcome, supported, and able to succeed within the classroom.
Morning Blend
Designed as a weekly professional development opportunity that is mindful of your time, Morning Blend is a great way to start your morning on Thursday or Friday.
Teaching Squares
Teaching Squares provides an opportunity for groups of faculty (usually 3-4) to engage in mutual, non-evaluative peer observation.
