With financial support from the Teagle Foundation, we invite faculty and graduate students to design, implement, and evaluate teaching innovations specifically designed to improve undergraduate student learning.
A first cohort of faculty will start implementing their teaching innovations in the fall, and we are now inviting you to join the 2009-2010 cohort. The selected group of faculty and their graduate students will meet regularly at CELT to (1) learn about research-based best practices in teaching and (2) design a teaching innovation that you can implement in the academic year 2010 - 2011. Teaching innovations may include using podcasts, conducting more formative assessment, introducing student peer evaluation, and much more. The goal is to take the time to define and structure a project that suits your needs and interests. There are funds available for graduate student stipends, refreshments, and relevant teaching materials such as books or DVDs.
If you are interested in participating, please contact celt@tufts.edu or Linda Jarvin by email at linda.jarvin@tufts.edu, or by phone at (617) 627-4002.
