What is it like to transition from teaching as a graduate student to having your own course load as an early career professor? What is it like teaching a different student population than we have gotten to work with at Penn? This session will cover these questions and more, as addressed by a panel of recent alumni from the Graduate School of Education who now teach within varied university settings. Participants will have the opportunity to engage and ask questions of the panel, learning from their experiences and reflections on the transition from graduate student to professor.

All graduate students are welcome. This event grows out of concerns in the Graduate School of Education, and so may be most useful to students in related fields.

Counts toward the CETLI Teaching Certificate.
