[FUN_Mail] Thoughts on a neuroscience teaching conference at WFU?

[Ramirez, Julio]

Hi Katy and Melissa,

How might this differ from the triennial FUN Workshops? The next one is scheduled for summer 2020 at Davidson College.

Thanks,

Julio

Dear FUN Faculty,

Good morning! I hope this email finds you well. I'm writing to ask your opinion about having Wake Forest be the site of a potential conference for the teaching of neuroscience.

There are many area-specific teaching conferences, but, in the field of neuroscience, there seems to be a dearth of such conferences. After this realization, we (along with a few colleagues at other universities) thought the time was right, and Wake Forest might the place, to hold such a conference. Our goal is to provide a forum where instructors of neuroscience can come together and share pedagogical, innovative, and effective ideas for teaching neuroscience to undergraduates.

Before we move forward, we want to gauge the interest level in this conference. We've constructed a short survey that will take less than 5 minutes of your time. Please take this survey at your earliest convenience - the survey will close on December 1.

Please feel free to forward this survey to your teaching-focused colleagues at other universities, as well. We will be distributing the survey on various list serves as well as social media and through our own connections, but we want this survey to reach as many people as possible.

Take the survey here<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwakeforest.qualtrics.com%2Fjfe%2Fform%2FSV_4Z0ZwJAzPO8cXjf&data=02%7C01%7Cjuramirez%40davidson.edu%7C3e8b368929f246c0eb0608d6459b691c%7C35d8763cd2b14213b629f5df0af9e3c3%7C1%7C1%7C636772931143220777&sdata=XpvjevIsONKOMj5sfWt5w9Lvjr0%2BNHB%2FeO%2F47UrgFbA%3D&reserved=0>.

Warmly,
