Recognizing Faculty Educators
The Scholarship in Teaching Awards program is designed to recognize faculty contributions to education in the preceding year and promote teaching as a scholarly activity. Teaching approaches considered scholarly are characterized by 1) purposeful planning 2) systematic implementation and 3) reflection and assessment for improvement. The result should be an academic product that is actively shared and that will support the development of a community of teaching scholars. Interested faculty members are invited to submit the Education Activity Summary (following pages) that includes a detailed description of an educational contribution that fulfills the criteria for scholarship.
In addition to projects from faculty members who worked on their own, joint or group projects are eligible for consideration as long as the application includes:
- Educational activity statements from all project members
- Detailed description of each member's role in one or more of the following project activities: planning, development, implementation, evaluation
General or unclear statements regarding member participation will impact the evaluation of the submission as a whole.
Submitted descriptions will be:
- Screened by an internal committee
- Sent for an external peer review
- Reviewed with the entire Education Activity Summary and all other available information by an internal awards committee that will make final award recommendations to the Dean
There are no exclusions for prior recognition. Past recipients are encouraged to submit new activities to be considered for the award. Awardees will be honored at a Deans ceremony and reception in September, receive a plaque, and have their pictures displayed in a prominent location and in School of Medicine media.
Interested faculty should complete the Education Activity Summary and submit it via email to Deidre Gruning (dxc38@case.edu) by September 1, 2008. Please direct any questions through email or call 368-3028.
