This year's regional conference will feature plenary speaker Dr. Saundra Yancy McGuire, Director Emerita of the Center for Academic Success at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where she formerly held the positions of Assistant Vice Chancellor and Professor of Chemistry. Dr. McGuire has written extensively on metacognition and growth mindset, including her most recent book, Teaching Students How to Learn.
In addition to our plenary and poster sessions featuring submissions from faculty around the region, breakout sessions on related topics, facilitated by Temple University's Provost's Teaching Academy faculty, will focus on concepts from Dr. McGuire's book.
