The Community for Research-based University STEM Teaching, a.k.a. CRUST, is an OSU student organization for students interested in learning about teaching STEM in a higher education setting.  Meetings will be centered on different topics in teaching STEM to further the professional development of our members.

At the Aug 25th meeting, we will be talking about knowing your students and POGIL (Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning) at the first meeting. 

For anyone who needs a refresher, CRUST is a community for STEM TAs here at Ohio State with three major focuses: 1) Professional development 2) Community building 3) Exploration of research-based teaching practices. CRUST will be great for people who are interested in pursuing a teaching position in the future or have a passion for education. To our knowledge, CRUST is the first and only student org at OSU that focuses on professional development for STEM educators. CRUST also provides a space for TAs to connect with each other.

August 25th (Knowing our students)
September 15th (Theories of learning)
October 6th (Selecting teaching methods and techniques)
