UTC Spring 2010 Teaching Assignments

Hi Everyone,

Here are the individual teaching assignments along with the dates of the lessons. Please edit the session under your name below to include the time required for each session. I will put them all together and make sure the timing works. Please note: This is a draft schedule which will be finalized closer to the date of the Program. I am sending this out to give you as much advance notice as possible as well as to allow for your feedback.

To date, we have 30 people registered for this class with a waiting list so we should have a full house. This means that we probably will have team teaching the last day. If you have any concerns or comments, please get back to me. I’m also thinking that I might ask for some time during a team meeting to allow for further discussion if desired.

A quick note on timing: Each content teaching day should end at 1:45 (the exception to this is day 2 which will end at 3:00 and only allow 1 hour for work time)to allow sufficient work time and teaching time for the participants. As a result of this, if the times you post exceed this limit in the aggregate, I might have to make some minor adjustments.
