The Educational Technology Faculty Fellows Program is a unique experience for any member of the campus community whose continuing contract has a teaching component. The dates for this year’s program are May 19th- May 23th (5:30-7:30 PM on the 19th, 1-4 PM on the 20th, and 9-4 on the remaining days with lunch from noon-1). The goals of the program are to increase the number of faculty taking advantage of Web 2.0 and other technologies in their teaching and scholarship, to familiarize faculty with tools and project types with which Educational Technology can help, and to help faculty learn how to assess technology projects. Participants will also be expected to develop course units to be implemented in one of their courses and to participate in continuing dialog throughout the year, and share their work with their colleagues in a faculty development event, such as Teaching Matters, Research Matters, or a brown-bag session.

The Program seeks to select a diverse group from all level of teaching experience, technology use, and project implementation and across all disciplines. Successful applicants will be expected to attend all sessions, must be willing to communicate to their department and campus the projects and tools with which they are working, and must be teaching a course in the 2014-2015 academic year. Upon completion of the week-long portion of the program participants will receive a certificate, designation as a Faculty educational Technology Fellow, and a $1000 technology projects fund.

Applications for the Program will be accepted on a rolling basis until 10 fellows are selected or until 9:00 AM on May 12th.  Applicants will be notified about the status of their application on a rolling basis but not later than 5 PM on May 12th. You can complete an application here.

Topics:

This year we will focus on Digital Scholarship and Data Visualization. Some time will also be spent on Digital Storytelling, but it will not be a focus as it has been in the past. Please keep an eye out here for a more detailed curriculum.

Our session on the 19th will be a dinner from 5:30-7:30 PM.
