Splash 2009 Information
Teacher Training: Remaining dates are Nov. 8th and Nov. 14th. If you have never taught for us before (and even if you have) teacher training has lots of useful information, as well as a free lunch! If you cannot attend Teacher Training, you must contact us.
Times: Splash 2009 will happen November 21-22, 2009, the weekend before Thanksgiving. On Saturday, Splash classes will run from 9 am-10 pm with a breaks for lunch from 1-2 pm and dinner from 6-7 pm, and on Sunday, classes will run from 9 am-7 pm with a lunch break from 1-2 pm.
Location: Splash is on the MIT campus. In particular, almost all our classrooms are just off the Infinite Corridor, in buildings 1, 5, 4, 2, and 26. Teacher check-in (where you should go before your first class) is in the Bush Room, 10-105. We’ll have more information for you after you register a class.
Deadlines: The deadline to sign up your class is October 29, at 11:59 PM! Please try to register your class as soon as possible, so we can review it and schedule it in time for students to sign up for it. This is particularly important if you are teaching for the first time, or if you have unusual requests for your class (expensive supplies, lab space, consent forms, etc.).
Hotel: If you’re coming from out of town, and need somewhere to stay, you can check out our hotels page to see hotels that MIT ESP suggests.
What To Teach: Short answer: Anything! Longer answer: well, still anything, but if that’s not specific enough for you, we’d be happy to help you figure out what you should teach. Just come to a meeting or worksession in October (meetings are Tuesdays at 8, worksessions are Wednesdays at 7, all in the ESP office, W20-467, with free dinner). You can also see what people are already teaching by looking at the catalog.
More Information: We’ll keep a running log of information for teachers on this page, so if you miss an email or need to make sure you’re up to date, just check back here.
