Make those plans to get out and about at the start of summer after June 4th because TSI is back for our 4th year! And we’ll be virtual again!!

What is TSI?

TSI is an AFT-sponsored, innovative virtual 4-day conference. This year it is Tuesday, June 1st – Friday, June 4th.

Mornings include an online synchronous workshop from 9-11am led by a pair of colleagues from different colleges and disciplines who provide opportunities for us to explore how we teach.

Afternoons include:

  • Live 15-minute Lightning Sessions with innovative teaching ideas
  • Health & Wellness activities
  • Pre-recorded Workshops that dive deep into dynamic teaching

Most importantly, Time and Space 2 Innovate is built into TSI for participants to apply concepts learned in their unique class environments and get a strong start to fall before summer even begins!

1-2 SDSU units are available for payscale advancement @ $80 per unit.

2 days = 1 unit; 4 days = 2 units
More details to come!
