Engelhard Conversations on Teaching

Engelhard Faculty Conversations on Teaching aim to create a small community of colleagues for deep exploration of various topics that relate to teaching and well-being, and foster connections with each other around the work we do here at Georgetown. Started in the Fall of 2017 with the “Teaching to Mission” Conversation group, our Faculty Conversations have now expanded to two different conversation groups, “Teaching to Mission” and “Inclusivity and Well-Being.”

Teaching to Mission

This Engelhard Faculty Conversation aims to connect the work we do as teachers and mentors with students to Georgetown’s mission and values. This group will read James Martin’s book The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, supplemented with additional readings.

Engelhard Faculty Conversation groups meet every other week over lunch or dinner. Participants attend all sessions, complete selected readings, and participate in group discussion. Each Conversation group has approximately eight faculty.
