Faculty Associates
Every semester, the Center for Teaching and Faculty Development invites applications from tenured faculty for Faculty Associate positions.
Each position brings .20 assigned time to work on a project related to teaching and scholarship, in particular:
- Universal Design for Learning
- The scholarship of teaching and learning
- The design of writing assignments, especially for second language learners
- Modeling and teaching equity and social justice
- Modeling and teaching diversity, including international diversity
- The pedagogy of the large classroom
- Pedagogical applications of technology
- (and others, as the faculty propose)
The Associate spends the equivalent of one day a week in the CTFD offices throughout the semester, engaged in research related to her proposed project, working with the Center Instructional Designers, and consulting with other faculty.
The positions enable the selected faculty members to develop a deeper awareness of their own teaching and their students' learning, and to share their research and discoveries with their colleagues.
