This annual conference is co-sponsored by the Teaching and Learning Centers
of Broome, Corning, Onondaga and Tompkins Cortland Community Colleges of New
York, the and the Institute for Community College Development (ICCD),
<http://www.iccd.cornell.edu> <http://www.iccd.cornell.edu> and SUNY
Center for Professional Development Center <http://www.cpd.suny.edu> .
Full- and part-time community college faculty share their expertise and
offer innovative teaching techniques in small groups. Themes of active
learning, student learning assessment and integrating technology are
explored. The conference is held for one full day plus optional events the
evening before.
History of the Conference
In the fall of 1991 the teaching centers at Broome Community College and
Tompkins Cortland Community College collaborated to provide a low-cost
professional development opportunity for their faculty. With the support of
the New York State Association for Two Year Colleges, the two colleges
pooled resources and planned a Successful Teaching Conference for the spring
of 1992. The goal of the conference was to provide a low-cost, high-quality
professional development opportunity for and by faculty that would allow
educators to participate, present, network, and talk pedagogy with their
peers. The conference was well received and the planning team decided to
repeat the event, this time inviting the Teaching Center at Corning
Community College to join the collaborative effort. For the next six years
the planning team from the three colleges planned and organized the
conference, allowing their faculty to share ideas, methodology and
techniques to enhance teaching effectiveness. In addition to presentations,
the conference GIFTS (Gathering Ideas for Teaching Success) session provided
a great way for faculty to share best practice and teaching tips.
In 1999 the Institute for Community College Development at Cornell
University joined the team. The conference increased in scope with the
assistance of ICCD. The Institute manages conference logistics and provides
a great deal of support, including conference coordination, program
planning, and a web page. The conference rotates around the upstate NY
region, with the three colleges alternating responsibility as host.
This year the SUNY Center for Professional Development has joined the group
to help other SUNY Campuses learn about and take part in this valuable,
collaborative, and collegial event.
