August Faculty Development Programs: CODA Advanced Education Program Preparations, Dental Trauma Research, and Promotion and Tenure
I am pleased to announce the upcoming programs for Friday August 28th. Dr. Janina Lewis, Director of Faculty Advancement, and I will conduct a session for new faculty members on the faculty promotion and tenure system and process in the School of Dentistry. This will take place in Brown Conference Room (Perkinson 3114) from 2:20 to 3:30 PM. A special announcement was sent to new faculty members previously but if you missed it please let Dr. Lewis know you would like to attend.
Also on Friday August 28th, we are fortunate to have Dr. Roberta Pileggi, Associate Professor, Chair, and Director of Graduate Endodontics & Associate Dean & Director for the School of Advanced Dental Sciences at the University of Florida College of Dentistry (UFCD) speaking to our faculty. Dr. Pileggi will be speaking in Perkinson 3121 on two topics. From 2:20 to 3:30 she will be discussing CODA Advanced Education Preparation at the UFCD. Following this session 3:40 PM, she will be speaking on Dental Trauma Research, also in Perkinson 3121. Both sessions are open to all faculty members. You can learn more about Dr. Pileggi at http://dental.ufl.edu/about/people/faculty/endodontics/roberta-pileggi/.
I personally enjoyed and learned much from program provided in July by the Behavioral Learning Team (BLT) from the School of Allied Health Professions last month. The BLT faculty of Amy Armstrong, Laurie Cathers and Chris Wagner covered the array of topics our students will be learning in the new behavior sciences curriculum starting this semester.
As a reminder, under our new school schedule, Faculty Development programs are scheduled for the fourth Friday PMs of each month (except November and December for obvious reasons) and also the second Friday PMs in March, April and May. Due to the international bike race, there will not be a program in September this year.
Looking ahead to October 23rd, the program will include ECHO 360 use, Exam Soft and setting up Blackboard and Banner Grade entry.
