CLT: Faculty Development Shark Tank: Jumping into the Deep End with Teaching and Research

• In Event: Roundtables Thur2
  In Roundtable Session: CLT - Roundtables Thur2

Short Description

During the spring of 2015, the Faculty Innovator Cafe was launched to facilitate faculty exploration of innovative teaching and learning through the use of a common reader, conversational experience, and peer support. A unique and popular aspect of the community was a “Shark tank” style competition for scholarship of teaching and learning seed grants. This roundtable discussion will invite conversation around the process one university used to develop the program, lessons learned, and best practices.
