Digital Learning Educational Innovation Across Northwestern

The Quarterly Academic Kickoff events provide first-time TAs and grad student and postdoc instructors opportunities to learn about and explore institutional knowledge to get their head in the game for the first day of classes! Participants are invited to attend a variety of interactive sessions throughout the day facilitated by campus partners and experienced graduate student instructors known as Team Captains. Each session is grounded in evidence-based practices and Northwestern’s Principles of Inclusive Teaching. Participants will also have plenty of opportunities to informally socialize during morning coffee, intentional breaks, and a lunch hour.
