MT Engage Faculty Showcase

High-Impact Practices | Fall 2017

More Details

How can faculty promote academic engagement among their students? High impact teaching practices support engaged learning in several ways: they require purposeful effort, foster relationships with faculty and peers, and provide opportunities to apply and reflect on learning. In this panel discussion, MT Engage faculty will discuss how they use high impact practices such as experiential learning, civic learning, diversity and global learning, flipped instruction, common intellectual experiences, learning communities, and writing intensive and capstone courses.

 

Facilitator: Dr. Michelle Boyer-Pennington

Panelists: Dr. Stephanie Dean, Dr. Mary Evins, Dr. Virginia Hemby-Grubb, Ms. Natonya Listach, Ms. Kristi Shamburger

If you're looking for some just-in-time training or want to dig a little deeper into a specific topic of interest, MTSU subscribes to both Teaching Professor ("reflects the changing needs of today's college faculty and the students they teach") and Academic Leader ("reflects the evolving needs of academic deans, department chairs and heads, program directors, and others with leadership responsibilities") online publications. If attempting to access either publication off-campus, you'll be asked to enter your MTSU credentials.

If you have an idea for a potential future workshop, please feel free to send your suggestions to Dr. Lando Carter.
