Each academic quarter, the educational designers and developers of the UCLA Teaching and Learning Center (TLC) offer via Zoom a weekly series of seven pop-up sessions - each just 10 minutes in length - on focused, specific topics related to course design, teaching, learning, and learning assessment. The additional “+10” in the series title refers to an optional 10 minutes that follow each presentation for Q&A and discussion. These 10 + 10 sessions will take place at 10am (PT) every Tuesday in the quarter, from Week 2 through Week 8.
These sessions are open to all UCLA instructors—including faculty, lecturers, instructors of record, graduate student instructors, and postdoctoral scholars. Please direct any inquiries to instructorsupport@teaching.ucla.edu.
