10:30 AM-1:00 PM EDT on Mon

All new Study Leaders teaching courses for OSHER in the Winter or Spring of 2020 are invited to participate in a 2 1/2 hour orientation session. We will cover a number of topics significant to you as a Study Leader to guide and support you in your teaching endeavor.

Our agenda will include:
• Understanding the "world" of OSHER's Study Leaders
• The key elements of course design and delivery in a nut shell!
• Using technology in OSHER classrooms

If you've previously taught a course for OSHER but never made it to a Study Leader Orientation, please do enroll.
