Courses for Open Classroom Initiative in the Semester 2 of 2022-23


sorted in alphabetical order by last name


To promote teaching excellence at UIC, CTL has launched ‘Open Classroom Initiative’ (OCI), which provides our colleagues a safe space to learn and develop innovative and technological pedagogical practices from the exemplary colleagues who have demonstrated teaching excellence in their courses. If you would like to observe the participating courses (see below), please register and choose the available timeslot in advance. After receiving the registration, CTL will inform the course instructors and participants via email. 


To encourage communications between observers and instructors and extend the learning experience, each observer can apply for two meal vouchers to invite the instructor observed to enjoy food. Please be kindly noted that one voucher can be used as a deduction for one buffet meal or 33 RMB for meal ordering in the Faculty Club (Admin Building Floor 4). The last day of using this voucher is May 24, 2023. You could come to AD501-H31 to get the vouchers during the working hours.


Seats for Each Timeslot: 5

Registration: https://oas.uic.edu.cn/
