Are you exploring transdisciplinary approaches or integrating AI tools in your teaching? CTL invites you to showcase your innovative practices through our Open Classroom Initiative (OCI) during 7 Apr (Week 9) to 25 Apr (Week 11). This is a great opportunity to share your experiences, receive valuable peer feedback, and inspire colleagues with your teaching innovations.

Special Focus: Transdisciplinary Teaching & AI Integration

We especially welcome sessions that demonstrate transdisciplinary teaching practices, AI integration, or the combination of both. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• AI-driven assessments and feedback

• Personalized learning through AI algorithms

• AI literacy instruction

• Creative uses of AI tools in your subject area

• Strategies for managing AI in student learning

Why Share Your Teaching Practice？

• Receive focused feedback on your transdisciplinary and/or AI-enhanced teaching methods

• Learn from peer observers' perspectives and experiences

• Contribute to building best practices in innovative teaching

• Help colleagues interested in exploring new teaching approaches

• Earn recognition with a certificate of appreciation and a gift card
