OPID Spring Conference for Wisconsin Educators<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Each spring, faculty, instructors, and lecturers from UW System\u2019s 13 universities gather to share experiences, knowledge, and innovative teaching and learning practices. The Spring Conference is also the culminating event for the 2025-26 Wisconsin Teaching Fellows & Scholars Program with participants making public their year-long Scholarship of Teaching & Learning projects at the poster reception. We envision a conference where participants are reinvigorated with the joys of teaching and learning in Wisconsin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI was inspired in general just to keep going, to keep believing in what I do and that it matters.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
