Academic Support Staff, Faculty, Graduate Student Instructors, Instructors

The Center for Teaching and Learning is hosting a campus-wide virtual event to spotlight teaching and learning projects developed by Fellows in the Presidential Chairs Fellowship Grant Program and the Lecturer Teaching Fellows Program. Each program offers a unique contribution to the culture of teaching and learning on campus.

The Presidential Chair Fellows Program, sponsored by the Vice Provost of Undergraduate Education, funds four faculty teams to carry out undergraduate curriculum redesign efforts at the program level. For the AY2021-22 grant cycle, Fellows developed projects to address opportunities for fostering equity, inclusion, and community.

The Lecturer Teaching Fellows Program funds eight lecturer teams to generate dynamic tools and resources for enriching and innovating teaching and learning practices on campus. Fellows often develop and pilot projects in their individual courses to inform interdisciplinary and campus-wide implementation plans.
