[VPAAEtal] Faculty Resources Just For You!

[Academic Affairs]

Dear Faculty,

The semester is ending. The holidays are approaching. The CFEI would like to send you off with a handful of resources.

(1)
Please note the upcoming webinar series on Monday, December 21 at 11:00 a.m., 11:30 a.m., and 12:00 p.m. focusing on using the SRTEs (or course evaluations) reports for self-assessments of your courses and potential course improvements. These webinars are available at the CFEI or online. Brief discussions will follow each webinar at the CFEI.

If you are working on innovative teaching strategies, research, scholarship, and/or service and would like to share your efforts with your colleagues, the Faculty LED (or Lion Educator Dissemination) program will help you do so. The CFEI Faculty Developer will provide you with assistance with hosting, securing resources, announcing, registering, and facilitating your presentations. Now is the time to plan for presentations this coming Spring 2016 semester.
