14th Annual Faculty Center Conference & Upcoming Events

To Faculty and Staff:

As a reminder, we encourage you to attend our annual Faculty Center conference on Friday, February 28, 2025, from 9:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in the Campus Center Ballroom. This year's conference focuses on the Science of Teaching and Learning, showcasing the science of how we learn and how to apply it in teaching. We have invited Dr. Jennifer McCabe, Distinguished Professor and Chair of Psychology at Goucher College in Baltimore, Maryland. In her keynote, “SET” for Success: Core Strategies for Effective Learning in a Metacognitive Framework, Dr. McCabe will discuss her recent research on three core learning strategies – Spacing, Elaboration, and Testing (SET). This conference will include the keynote address, as well as an interactive workshop to help you develop your ideas into actionable goals to improve students’ learning. The day will conclude with our Faculty Center Awards and short Lightning Talk sessions from Farmingdale faculty and staff. Faculty and staff are both welcome to attend.
