The Drake Institute invites all who teach and support teaching at Ohio State to explore our autumn 2026 programming lineup. This semester, we're offering engaging workshops across multiple core competency areas, including Active Learning, Educational Technology, Effective Learning Environments and more. Many of the sessions fulfill partial criteria for a teaching endorsement, a credential offered by the institute to recognize dedicated professional learning in a specific area of teaching and learning. To learn more, explore Teaching Endorsements.
Thank you to the many partners across campus who collaborated on or contributed to our fall workshops, including the Dennis Learning Center, Drake Institute Affiliates, First Year Experience, the Office of Technology and Digital Innovation, Student Life Disability Services and University Libraries.
