Facilitators

  • There will be multiple breakout sessions during the workshop. All of these are designed to guide participants towards their curriculum development outcomes.
  • For most of the sessions, we will group participants by shared teaching focus, discipline, or a combination - staying in the same groups for the duration of the workshop.
  • For each session, the main role of the facilitator is to keep the discussion on track, and to ensure the group is working towards its stated outcomes for the breakout.
    • For each breakout
      • There are a set of prompts on the Program web page to help you guide the discussion. Make sure your group has those in mind and is working towards them.
      • Delegate a group member to 1) take notes and (another to) 2) be the designed speaker to represent your group for any reportouts.
    • Conveners and MathWorks staff are there to provide guidance to group members during the workshop.
