the cft welcomes the 2019-20 bold fellow teams!

posted by rhett mcdaniel on wednesday, september 18, 2019 in news.

the bold fellows program helps graduate students from all disciplines design and develop online learning experiences, from building online learning modules to fostering online spaces for their students to interact. each fellow works with a faculty member who has identified a teaching “problem” in a particular course and develops a potential solution that they then integrate into the course. importantly, as part of the project, they gather data on how the experience impacts student learning and share those results with colleagues.

the program spans two semesters: the fall 2019 “design and development” semester, in which fellows receive training and support as they develop their module, and the spring 2020 “implementation and assessment” semester, in which the fellows implement the project, gather evidence, and work with the cft to interpret and present their results.

look for the poster session where the fellows will share their projects in may 2020!
