The Office for the Advancement of Teaching (OAT), under the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs (OVCAA) would like to invite UP Diliman faculty members to participate in the first course in a series of teaching effectiveness courses (TEC) this year entitled “Fundamentals of University Teaching.” This will be the first on-site TEC in three years.  This event will be held at the Second Floor Lecture Hall of the UP School of Statistics and will run for 3 days, from July 17-19, 2023.

This is an introductory course on teaching and learning in higher education intended for new or early-career faculty members in the university, particularly those teaching at the undergraduate level. The course involves offline exercises with face-to-face workshops and opportunities for interaction with co-participants and facilitators. Learning is expected to be collaborative and experiential.

We would greatly appreciate it if you could help us identify faculty members who will greatly benefit from this course. Please help us cascade the information about the schedule to your faculty so that those interested could calendar the activity. 

Faculty members who have decided to commit to participate and finish the course can register through https://bit.ly/TECJuly2023 on or before 23 June 2023 (Friday). Due to limited slots, we can only accommodate 60-70 participants on a first-come-first-served basis. 

The provisional program is attached for your reference: https://bit.ly/TEC2023Program.
For questions and clarifications, please contact the Office for the Advancement of Teaching at ovcaa.oatdiliman@up.edu.ph or you may call at VoIP Loc. 2562 (ATTN: Ms Daizy Agao).

Thank you very much.

The Student Evaluation of Teaching (SET) Answering Module in the Computerized Registration System (CRS) will be open from May 25, 2023 to June 15, 2023 only.

Students may accomplish the SET by logging into their CRS accounts and clicking on the “SET Answering Module.” Those who fail to answer the SET will be tagged as “low priority” in the next term’s pre-enlistment, while the students in the MBA calendar who fail to answer the SET will be delayed for 1 hour in the next term’s real-time enlistment.

Please note that the evaluation of the teaching performance of teaching fellows and teaching associates (TFs/TAs) should also be conducted during the period stated above via CRS (if available).

For TFs and TAs who do not have a CRS account, kindly accomplish this Qualtrics Form during the same period: https://upsystemdiliman.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cBGkMpI3El20pIW
