The
following message is being sent on behalf of the Office of Academic Affairs and
the Center for Teaching, Learning and Academic Technology (CTLAT)
Co-Coordinators Drs. Steve Buddington and Eartha Lee Johnson:
Colleagues:
We
are once again sponsoring a “Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Research
Institute” funded through the Andrew Mellon Faculty Enhancement Grant. We
propose to host this institute May 22 -24, 2013 on campus. It is a
three (3) day institute to expose both our faculty and other local
HBCUs to the following select objectives:
(1)
Increase faculty interest in teaching and learning through SoTL and Faculty
Learning Community principles
(2)
Provide consultant support to faculty for investigating and utilizing new strategies
in classroom research as well as
Experimental research
(3)
Increase publication submission rates for participating institutions
We
are requesting that you join us in this retreat that focuses on tips for
successful publishing. The goal is to assist faculty in submitting a
research project for publication before classes start in August. We are
asking that you focus on research that you have already begun so that at the
end of the institute you would be ready to submit to a referred journal. Faculty who submit successful proposals will
receive a stipend of $500.00 once the article has been submitted for
publication.
This
institute proved to be a great opportunity for junior and senior faculty who
needed the concentrated support to assist them in getting published. Dr.
Kathy Burlew, University of Cincinnati, will once again be conducting the
institute here at Dillard University.
We
ask that you complete the attached application and return to Barbara Albert, balbert@dillard.edu by April 29,
2013. Faculty members who have submitted an application for a mini-grant
are required to attend the three (3) day research institute.
Thank
you and we look forward to seeing you there.
