2:47 p.m., April 17, 2008--The deadline to nominate yourself or a colleague for UD's Exemplary Use of Technology in Teaching award is Wednesday, April 30. You can complete an online nomination form at [www.udel.edu/present/award/nomination.html].
The award identifies and rewards faculty members who incorporate technology into their teaching to enhance student learning. Winners will each receive $500 to use for professional development or to enhance their teaching with technology. The number of award winners each year depends on the number of submissions and the evaluation by the judges.
Over the past 3 years, award winners have come from departments across campus: Dorrie Deluca, accounting and management information systems; Jingyi Yu, computer and information sciences; Nancy Edwards, individual and family studies; Jennifer Lambe, communication; Richard Hanley, philosophy; and Chandra Reedy, art history.
Because the award is designed to recognize individual faculty efforts, technology applications that have been completely designed and implemented by academic support units are not eligible.
This year, the nominations will be judged by:
- James Dean, professor of English, (2005 award recipient);
- Kathy Pusecker, outcomes assessment analyst, Office of Educational Assessment, and;
- Pat Sine, director, Office of Educational Technology.
Award recipients will be notified May 9, and awards will be presented during the Summer Faculty Institute (June 2-6).
