Master Teacher Recognition Award

Master Teacher Recognition Award

The Master Teacher Recognition Program was created to recognize outstanding full-time faculty who have a track record of exceptional teaching in higher education and are interested in passing along their knowledge and love of teaching and learning, but have limited discretionary time to do so. The Master Teacher Recognition Awards program allows full-time faculty one three- or four-hour course reassignment for two semesters to research and design workshops for the Teaching and Learning Center. Past topics have included group learning to facilitate learning, syllabus language and tone, teacher immediacy behaviors and student engagement, and effective teaching styles.

A woman in a black shirt and a man in a blue button-down shirt stand side by side outdoors holding F+W engraved plaques. Behind them are light brick buildings with columns, flanked by lush green foliage including palm trees and leafy shrubs under daylight. The woman has glasses and shoulder-length hair; the man has reddish facial hair. Both smile while presenting their awards toward the camera.
