Reinert Center Innovative Teaching Fellowship Accepting Applications

01/24/2020

The Paul C. Reinert, S.J., Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning is accepting applications for its Innovative Teaching Fellowship. The fellowship prepares and supports faculty teaching in Saint Louis University’s Learning Studio, a highly-flexible, technology-rich experimental classroom.

The competitive, two-semester fellowship provides either a $3,200 stipend or funding to cover a one-course reduction in teaching in order to support course design/redesign and instructional development activities during the semester prior to teaching in the Learning Studio, as well as classroom and ongoing instructional development support during the semester of teaching in the Learning Studio.

The course development phase of the fellowship (semester one) includes participating in weekly meetings with a Reinert Center instructional developer; creating and/or revising course documents; and submitting a mid-term and end-of-term report on progress.

The teaching phase of the fellowship (semester two) includes teaching the course in the Learning Studio, continued contact with the Reinert Center instructional developer, and sharing one’s fellowship experience with the larger SLU community.

The next call for applications is for the following fellowship period:

• Course Development (semester 1): Fall 2020
• Course Teaching (semester 2): Spring 2021
