Instructional Mentoring Message

Faculty Development


 
 
Dear Colleagues
As Matt Phelps and I continue to partner as co-directors of faculty development, we have spent time considering the varied ways that we might more effectively encourage faculty members in their professional development. As it relates to instructional effectiveness in particular, we believe offering one-on-one support might be helpful. This academic year I would like to make myself available as an instructional mentor as part of my role in faculty development.

No matter the number of years of experience, we can all benefit from the opportunity to reflect on our teaching and the learning of our students. Especially helpful it seems, is the opportunity from time to time to process those reflections with a colleague.

I will be available both fall and spring semesters to serve as an instructional mentor to faculty who would like to have one-on-one conversations about teaching. In a truly formative and informal fashion, I will be glad to meet with individual faculty who wish to process their reflections on teaching and learning.

Simply contact me by email plong@malone.edu or phone, ext. 8222, and I’ll look forward to the opportunity to meet together.

Blessings-
Patty
