Part-time Faculty Orientation is a two-day professional development opportunity designed to introduce faculty members to teaching and learning at Durham College. Part-time faculty members will actively participate in sessions that introduce the science of learning, curriculum, lesson design, instructional and assessment strategies, and learning technology.
