  How'd Your Semester Go? Reflecting for Growth

  Facilitator: Rebecca Weaver

  Once you've turned in your grades for the semester, it's pretty tempting to close the computer and go bake cookies or pack for a trip or turn to other things. But you noticed some things this semester about what and how your students learned. Maybe you're still thinking about that one class session in the middle of the semester where everything went right (or nothing did). Maybe, as you're starting to calculate semester grades, you're seeing certain trends or surprises. This workshop will provide space and time for participants to reflect on how your teaching went this semester, and will include a set of takeaway strategies for reflecting on future semesters. A short "pre-work" prepatory assignment will be sent out a few days before the chat.

  Timesaving Strategies: Dr. Morton Ann Gernsbacher

  10:30am

  at Academic Learning Center, Room 1200

  Teaching large classes can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to! Open to all faculty and hosted by the Norman J. Radow College of Humanities and Social Sciences. Time Saving Strategies: Assessment, Engagement, and Student Success Strategies - Even in Your Largest Classes featuring award-winning educator Dr. Morton Ann Gernsbacher.

   

  Dr. Gernsbacher is a Vitas Research Professor and the Sir Frederic Bartlett Professor at the University of Wisconsin. She was also the past President for the Association for Psychological Science. Dr. Gernsbacher is known for turning research into real-world teaching strategies that work - especially in large classes.

   

  This session will provide practical, research-backed strategies to boost student participation, create a sense of community, and streamline assessment without adding to your workload. Walk away with immediately applicable techniques that make teaching large courses more dynamic, rewarding, and effective.

   

  Dr. Gernsbacher will address: 

  • Common Challenges in Large Classes such as  lack of student engagement, interaction, and participation, and managing workload for faculty and burnout  
  • Active Learning Strategies such as think-pair-share variations, classroom polling and instant feedback, and structured small-group discussions. 
  • Increasing Student Participation and a Sense of Belonging through personalized engagement in even large classes with low effort or easy tech options. 
  • Fostering Community and  Collaboration using group assignments with rotating leadership, meaningful, easy to grade discussions, learning pods, and collaborative tech tools. 
  • Scalable Assessment and Feedback Strategies, including efficient grading methods, low-stakes, frequent assessments, and providing meaningful feedback even in large classes. 
  • Leveraging Technology for Engagement and Success without increasing your workload by using LMS features effectively, using AI,

  MS in Chemical Sciences Thesis Defense

  Speaker: Kaniz Fatama Khan, MSCB student
  Title: Biophysical and Biochemical Characterization of Flavone O-methyltransferase from Oryza sativa: Understanding and Engineering Enzymes to Enhance Flavonoid Biosynthesis in Plants
  Abstract: Methylated flavonoids exhibit enhanced biological activities compared to their unmethylated counterparts and function as antibiotics, antivirals, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-obesity, neuroprotective, and antiallergic agents. During my time in the Master of Science in Chemical Sciences (MSCB) program at Kennesaw State University (KSU), I investigated the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, focusing specifically on flavone 3'-O-methyltransferase (OsMT) from Oryza sativa (rice), an S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferase involved in essential cellular processes, including the metabolism of xenobiotic and endogenous compounds. To elucidate the enzymatic function and potential applications of OsMT, we determined its three-dimensional (3D) structure and employed molecular biology and biochemical approaches to evaluate its activity and identify the roles of active site amino acid residues. Using QuikChange mutagenesis, I performed site-directed mutagenesis to generate point mutations targeting both the substrate and SAM cofactor binding sites. The contributions of these mutations to catalysis and binding were assessed through steady-state kinetics of wild-type and mutant enzymes, complemented by binding assays using nano differential scanning fluorimetry (nanoDSF) and microscale thermophoresis (MST). These kinetic and binding studies provided valuable insights into how specific mutations influence enzymatic activity and substrate specificity. Overall, this thesis work establishes a foundation for understanding key residues in OsMT function and contributes to our broader knowledge of flavone biosynthesis in rice. Furthermore, several OsMT mutants identified potential regions that can be engineered to alter enzyme characteristics, such as substrate specificity and catalytic efficiency. This approach has the potential to modify plant secondary metabolism to enhance resistance to pests or environmental stress and to enable the production of bioactive compounds with improved pharmacokinetic properties, such as anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer flavonoids.

  Strategic Workshop: Developing Leaders and Building Bench Strength

  12:00pm

  at Cox Family Enterprise Center

  In this workshop, Joe Farach of Neri Capital Partners will explore the essential competencies for developing a strong management team that fuels business growth and long-term success. A well-developed leadership team is the backbone of a thriving company, ensuring stability, innovation, and scalability.

  We’ll begin by defining the key roles that are critical to your company’s success and identifying the leadership qualities necessary for each position to drive performance and strategic execution.

  Next, we’ll assess your current management team, pinpointing strengths and areas for development. This evaluation will uncover skill and competency gaps that need to be closed to assure your company’s ability to scale and execute its vision effectively.

  With these insights, you’ll develop a targeted leadership development plan, combining company-wide initiatives with individualized coaching strategies. We’ll also build a succession matrix to map out key roles, assess current role occupants, identify future leaders, and outline the skills required for each position. This structured approach leads to a strong management team that will ensure your business remains resilient, adaptable, and prepared for sustainable growth.

  By investing in leadership development and succession planning, you’ll create a management team capable of scaling your business and insuring a strong foundation for long-term success.

  Strategic Workshop: ESOPs – A Tax Advantage Ownership Transition Strategy for Family Businesses

  12:00pm

  at Cox Family Enterprise Center

  ESOPs – A Tax Advantage Ownership Transition Strategy for Family Businesses

  An Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) can be a powerful tool for family businesses looking to ensure a smooth transition of ownership, strengthen employee loyalty, and preserve the family legacy. ESOPs foster growth by incentivizing employees, preserving the family legacy by keeping ownership within the company, and helping ease family transitions by offering an organized method for ownership change.
  
  While it provides tax advantages and facilitates succession planning, it requires careful planning and communication to ensure its successful implementation. When done right, an ESOP can help secure both the future of the company and the financial well-being of both family members and employees.
  
  Join Will Lee of Applied Economics and learn how ESOPs can be a valuable tool for family-owned businesses including:

  • Facilitating Succession Planning
  • Retaining and Motivating Employees
  • Providing Liquidity to Family Owners
