Faculty Leadership Fellows, 2013 – 2014
The CAE’s Leadership Development program is now in its 2nd year of
building local expertise and cultivating campus leadership for teaching and
learning. This academic year Dr. Valeria Martinez (Finance, DSB) and Dr.
Glenn Sauer (Biology, CAS) return as FLFs and we welcome Dr. Emily Smith
(Educational Studies & Teacher Preparation, GSEAP). Learn more about our
Faculty Leadership Fellows on page 10.
Co-Mentoring Seminars
This academic year the CAE pilots two co-mentoring
seminars: (1) New Faculty Development and Co-Mentoring
Seminar: Thriving in the Early Years; and (2) Mid-Career and
Senior Faculty and Professionals Co-Mentoring Seminar:
Responsibilities, Opportunities, and Legacies. Participants
will engaged in shared activities, mentor and be mentored,
build a community of practice that mentors for individual
and collective professional development. Groups facilitated
and coordinated by a CAE staff member or fellow.
CAE hosts Back-to-School Days
To kick off the new academic year, the CAE collaborated
with Jay Rozgonyi, Mary Kleps, of Academic Computing,
Joan Clark of the DiMenna-Nyselius Library, to facilitate
sessions to help faculty get their Fall courses ready. Topics
included a refresher on teaching resources, getting started
with Blackboard, and course design. Look for a similar
offering prior to the start of the Spring 2014 semester.
