Recurring Events

Deep Work

Tuesdays, 9:00 – 11:00 am | Virtual
Wednesdays, 1:00 – 3:00 pm | In person

Want to carve out quality time for thinking deeply about your teaching? No matter your teaching to-dos—revising a course, working on teaching-related scholarship, etc.—we would love to work alongside you. Deep Work is based on the practice of time blocking, which is designating time for full concentration on a single task while minimizing distraction. Time blocking can increase your enjoyment of work, productivity, and sense of control in your work life. We’ll put away our phones and practice the art of attending to tasks we want to think deeply about. We hope you’ll consider joining our deep work community. Join us for a chance to win a copy of Cal Newport’s bestselling book, Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World.

CTE Well-Being Lab | Well-Being Wednesdays on Chancellor’s Walk

Wednesdays, 12:00 – 12:30 pm

Enter the classroom energized by getting outside of your office for fresh air, movement, and community. We’ll meet in front of the steps of Randall Hall and venture to Veterans Hall and back. You can spot us in our We Teach shirts - join us to grab one for yourself!
