Teaching and Learning

Welcome to the new UCSF School of Dentistry Teaching & Learning web page!

Last updated: 14 February 2012

This page, created 10 February 2012, is intended to be a resource for School of Dentistry with an interest in Teaching and Learning.  If you have suggestions or comments for items to add, plese contact Associate Dean Peter Sargent. 

Upcoming Worksop on Assessment Development

Patricia O'Sullivan, PhD, from the School of Medicine is planning to providing our faculty with a four hour workshop, given over four one-hour sessions, on "Assessment Development," including tips on how to constructive effective multiple choice questions.  The workshop will be scheduled during the final two weeks of the Winter Quarter (Feb 27 - Mar 9).  If you are interested, please contact Peter Sargent and tell him when you might be avaible (days of the week, times of the day).  The sessions will not be run at noon, since there's too much congestion at that hour as it is. 

Teaching & Learning Lending Library

I have made a start at a lending library for Teaching and Learning.  There are now about 20 holdings, 11 of which are loaded onto Kindle Readers.  For a list of the current titles in the nascent library, click on the following link: The Current Holdings. 

To borrow a title (or a Kindle, which has many titles), just come by my office (S-630).  Since I may be off-site, or since the title you want may be out, perhaps it's best to call or email before you make the trek.
