MT Engage Summer Institute
2021 | Day 2
More Details
Each year, MT Engage hosts a Summer Institute for MTSU faculty. This much-anticipated event includes an overview of MT Engage and its student learning outcome of integrative and reflective thinking, spotlights high-impact practices, and supports faculty in developing signature assignments and ePortfolio pedagogies. Surveys of past participants are overwhelmingly positive and indicate that faculty appreciate the opportunity to interact with and learn from colleagues from across campus.
This year's Summer Institute will be held via Zoom from 9-3 on Thursday, May 13 and from 9-noon on Friday, May 14. Select materials and a Summer Institute Survival Kit will be provided in advance, and participants who attend both days and submit a course certification form will receive a $500 stipend.
Any tenure-track, tenured, full-time temporary, and adjunct faculty who have not participated in a previous summer institute are invited to participate.
We have a limited number of seats available, and they tend to fill quickly, so please respond at your earliest convenience to reserve your spot.

Follow us on Twitter to stay up-to-date on planned workshops, special events, and faculty book groups as well as highlighted articles that may be of interest to you.
If you're unable to attend a scheduled workshop, we typically record them and make them available via our YouTube channel.
Workshop registration and attendance information for inclusion in your tenure and promotion materials can be accessed directly via the university's workshop registration system.
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.
