SUMMARY:NCFDD Webinar: Overcoming by Understanding Academic Writer’s Block
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar\, Dra. Aurora Chang addresses the state of immobility and powerlessness when writing feels impossible – also known as writer’s block. She focuses on the stories we tell ourselves about who we are as academic writers and how that narration deeply impacts our perceived ability to write. She asks the broad question – how do we revise our self-narratives so that writing feels freeing rather than confining? She also asks the specific question – what are simple\, practical ways to overcome academic writing blocks when they hit? The main takeaway? Understanding the roots of your writing block is at the crux of overcoming it. \nBy the end of the webinar\, you will: \n\nReflect on the relationship between academic writing and your personal identity \nUnderstand and re-narrate the stories you tell about your writing identity \nLearn short-term and long-term ways to conquer academic writing blocks. \n\nPresenter Details\nDra. Aurora Chang is a once undocumented Guatemalan immigrant turned hyper documented professor of Higher Education at Loyola University Chicago. A graduate of UC Berkeley\, Stanford University\, and The University of Texas at Austin\, she earned her doctoral degree in Curriculum and Instruction with a programmatic focus on Cultural Studies in Education. As a twenty-five-year educator\, she began her career as an English/English as a Second Language high school teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area – the foundation of her career. \nPrior to her role as an assistant professor at Loyola University\, she spent fifteen years in diverse leadership roles that spanned the PreK-20 spectrum as well as public\, private\, and non-profit sectors\, including stints at the College Board\, The University of California at Berkeley\, The University of Texas at Austin\, Beloit College\, and The University of Wyoming. \nDra.’s research centers on the intersection of education\, identity\, and agency within traditionally marginalized communities. Currently\, she focuses on four research areas: (1) Latinx educational experiences with a focus on those that are undocumented\, (2) Multiracially-identified students’ educational experiences\, (3) how educators (K-20) of all backgrounds can effectively reflect upon their pedagogical practices in an effort to serve students of marginalized backgrounds\, and (4) the experiences of Faculty Women of Color in the Academy. \n\nFree Individual Memberships for the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD)\nAvailable to all Cornell students\, postdocs\, faculty\, and staff \nCornell is an institutional member of the National Center for Faculty Development & Diversity (NCFDD)\, a nationally recognized\, independent organization providing online career development and mentoring resources. The NCFDD provides members with access to tools to increase research and writing productivity and improve work-life balance.  \nActivate your account by following the steps below: \n\nGo to the NCFDD website\nUnder “Select Your Institution\,” choose “Cornell University”\nSelect “Activate my Membership”\nComplete the registration form using your Cornell email address\nCheck your Cornell email account to find a confirmation/welcome email.

Through workshops in this series\, we will work to identify attitudes and behaviors that can help us be more resilient as we navigate difficult situations in school\, work and life. Each workshop will highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for success in research and healthcare careers and will provide strategies for developing these competencies as part of your educational journey. While you may participate in any of the webinars\, it is best to participate in the entire series as the material relates and concepts will be developed throughout the series. Data show that trainees who attended most of the sessions of the earlier “Becoming a Resilient Scientist Series” reported that they had become more resilient\, were better able to handle stress and conflict in their lives\, and would recommend the series highly to their colleagues. \nThe workshops in the series are: \nSession 1 (September 23) – An Introduction to Resilience and Wellness \nSession 2 (October 7) – Exploring our Self-Talk: Cognitive Distortions and Imposter Fears \nSession 3 (October 21) – Self-Advocacy and Assertiveness for Scientists \nSession 4 (November 4) – Developing Feedback Resilience \nSession 5 (November 18) – Managing Up to Maximize Mentoring Relationships \nIf you miss a workshop and want to watch the recording\, please visit the NIH OITE series page for links based on date and topic.

SUMMARY:CIRTL Network: Designing a Course Based on Your Research Expertise
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning more about course design? Have you ever wanted to turn your research topic into a course? Join us to hear a panel of grad students and postdocs share their own experiences building a course based on their fields of research! In this online panel\, past participants in the CIRTL Network course “Transforming Your Research Into Teaching” (TYRIT) will share the courses they developed as TYRIT participants\, reflect on what their course design process was like and how TYRIT influenced their work\, and discuss how they’ve been able to – or will be able to – put their designs into practice. Two current TYRIT instructors\, Katie Kearns (Indiana University Bloomington) and Bailey Szustak (University of Illinois Chicago) will moderate. \n“Transforming Your Research Into Teaching” grew out of a course developed nearly 10 years ago at the University of Iowa\, and is now a multi-institutional class bringing together students from more than a dozen universities (all either current or former CIRTL members). Each university runs its own local section of the course\, and CIRTL runs a multi-institutional section for students whose universities don’t have their own local section. Students work through course content on their own each week\, attend their university’s weekly discussion sections\, and collaborate with each other in disciplinary-based peer review groups to develop\, refine\, and revise their course design projects. TYRIT will be offered again in Summer 2022. \nEvent Schedule: This online event takes place on Thursday\, July 29 at 3-4PM ET \nRegistration: This drop-in\, online event is open to the public. Anyone is welcome to attend\, but you must register in order to attend. Once you register\, you will have access to the online meeting room where this event will take place. \nAccessibility: We strive to be inclusive of anyone interested in participating in our activities. If you have specific accessibility needs\, please contact us at info@cirtl.net in advance so that we may make the necessary accommodations. \nLearning Outcomes \nAssociate Level: Learning Community \n\n\n\n\n\nRecognize the value of and participate in local professionally-focused learning communities associated with teaching and learning.
