The Knighted Faculty Program is our single-semester “deep dive” into best practices in teaching. We explore the current thinking about the science of learning, integrated course design, assessment and feedback, teaching methods, classroom management, and professional development. Participants have the opportunity to share with colleagues your wisdom and experiences with these topics.
The program lasts 12 weeks with 6 biweekly, in-person meetings. Participants will receive a copy of Zakrajsek & Nilson’s Teaching at its Best, which will be our primary text. There will be an accompanying webcourse and the opportunity to participate in a teaching square (peer observation of teaching).
The Spring 2027 meetings will take place Wednesdays, 2:00pm-4:30 pm on Jan 27, Feb 10, Feb 24, Mar 10, Mar 24, and Apr 7. Those who complete the program will receive a certificate for their dossier. To register, please complete this form by 4:00 pm on Thursday, Jan 21. Space is limited (up to 40), but we offer the program each fall and spring semester.
