Highlights

October 2009:

Pam Thomas was one of two University faculty members selected as Large Class Faculty Fellows by the Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning.  Pam was selected along with Alisha Jonowsky from Psychology.  They will provide support for those who teach large classes (defined as >100 students) through workshops, consultations, and by facilitating a teaching circle. Teaching Circles meet bi-monthly in the Faculty Center.  Meetings include the sharing of ideas and conducting discussions of the literature on how to be successful with large class instruction.

May 2005: Pamela Thomas, Jane Waterman, and John Weishampel have been recommended as 2005 CAS Teaching Incentive Program (TIP) award recipients. The TIP program rewards faculty for teaching productivity and excellence. Selection criteria include teaching quality and effectiveness, commitment to instruction, innovation, creativity, and productivity based on a portfolio of assignments and evaluations collected over the previous 4 academic years.
