Deans' Faculty Fellowship
Brown University Graduate School
This program involved designing a faculty-mentored seminar course to be taught at Brown University. In Spring (2017), I served as instructor for this class and received excellent student evaluations.
Certificate Programs in Teaching Development
The Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning (Brown University)
Certificate I – Reflective Teaching (2012/2013)
This seminar develops reflective teaching practice through a series of readings, lectures, and interactive workshops. Topics include syllabus and course design, styles of student learning, constructing and measuring learning goals, assessment and student evaluation, and persuasive communication. Each participant is also asked to watch and reflect upon a video recording of a class they taught. This recording and the teacher’s self-reflection are evaluated by teaching consultants from the Sheridan Center.
Certificate II - The Course Design Seminar: Principles and Practice (2013/2014)
Over the course of the academic year, certificate participants design a course and construct a syllabus. Specific workshop topics include constructing and measuring learning goals, designing and delivering a single class session, facilitating discussion, delivering lectures, student evaluation, and syllabus design.
Certificate III – The Professional Development Seminar (2014/2015)
During this seminar, participants construct a professional teaching portfolio, statement of research interests, and CV over multiple rounds of peer review. This certificate program emphasizes clear communication in teaching, research, and interview settings.
Certificate V – Principles and Practice in Reflective Mentorship (2014/2015)
Participants in this selective grant program mentor an undergraduate student through a full research project funded by the Sheridan Center. The goal of this program is to provide both a.) research experience to young scientists and b.) professional mentorship training to graduate students pursuing positions in higher education. In monthly workshop sessions, Brown University faculty members present on topics in mentorship including effective communication, mentor/mentee relationships, academic advising, and work/life balance.
