Faculty Mentoring Faculty: Lessons Learned from a Formal Learning Technology Mentorship Program

Tuesday, February 10 | 11:45AM–12:30PM
Session Type: Professional Development
In an effort to improve the quantity and quality of online and blended courses taught at Purdue University North Central, a new program was put into place in fall 2014. Based on research in the value of peer mentoring in academic settings, a group of faculty mentors with extensive experience teaching with technology were paired with others who are just getting started. This presentation will describe the program structure, as well as the successes and challenges of the program from the faculty point of view, in order to assist other institutions in exploring similar models for improved faculty development.
