## Abstract

2020 APS Institute on Teaching and Learning
 Project Summary/Abstract
The American Physiological Society (APS) will present the 2020 Institute on Teaching and Learning (ITL)
from June 22-26, 2020 at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis. This biennial conference features best
practices in evidence-based teaching and learning and assists faculty and trainees in the development of
publishable educational research initiatives. The 2020 ITL conference will include presentations from
multiple established researchers and educators, who will serve both as speakers at the institute and as
facilitators of interactive workshop activities that will include modeling of innovative teaching techniques.
Many of these presenters will bring their expertise from outside the field of physiology to ITL participants.
The ITL provides an opportunity for networking and the exchange of breakthrough ideas and best
practices in physiology education. In addition, we hope to use the 2020 conference as a training
opportunity for graduate fellows to develop their careers through participation in a mentorship program
focused on practical skills training and career development. This is a group in which explicit training and
opportunities in teaching are rarely available in their home institutions
The 2020 ITL will engage physiologists from diverse institutions both in the US and worldwide that reach
underserved students and students across the education spectrum, including undergraduate, graduate,
and professional levels; and provides support for collaborations among new and experienced educators
by establishing a critical communication forum across educational levels.
