教师 Induction and Mentoring

New faculty come to us with the desire to be the best teacher they can be. We are committed to supplementing their desire with the skill and tools it takes to become the successful teacher they envision. The two-year induction and mentoring program for new full-time faculty provides a welcoming and supportive climate and teaches and models research-based instructional practices. New faculty members are mentored by a faculty member of another discipline who has taught at Hawkeye for at least three years.

Professional Learning Communities

Professional learning communities are made up of small groups of faculty to create new understandings through the study and application of research-based practices in their classroom to improve professional practice and how students learn. 教师 can focus their efforts in an area of unique or strong interest. With successful completion, faculty can apply the work toward their Quality 教师 Plan.

教学广场

教学 squares provide faculty the opportunity to observe their colleagues in the classroom and reflect on how they could improve their own instruction.  Upon completion of each observation, participants will reflect on their takeaways and discuss these with their groups at an All Squares gathering at the end of the semester.  Following successful completion of the 教学 Square, each member will earn a certificate from the Brobst Center for his or her Quality 教师 Plan.
