Barrier or driver | Example strategies |
---|---|
Barrier: lack of time | Mini-grants supported individual faculty or teams of faculty to explore and implement EBIPs and assessment strategies; all departments have had at least one project |
Barrier: lack of pedagogical knowledge/information | A list of pedagogical strategies with discipline-specific references was created for each STEM department; one department posted this table in their lounge as a starting point for discussion. |
Driver: encourages collaboration and shared objectives | In response to department activity, communities of practice were supported to engage faculty in continued exploration of specific pedagogies. |
Driver: improves teaching and assessment | Data team created to assist faculty in using institutional student data to inform their teaching |
