Fellowships

The Teaching and Learning Excellence Division (TLED) offers comprehensive, long-term fellowship opportunities on a variety of topics to support our vision for Austin Community College (ACC) faculty to lead as models of teaching and learning excellence in higher education.

Upcoming Opportunity

TLED is sponsoring an exciting opportunity for faculty who are interested in gaining a greater level of experience and expertise with course redesign strategies and serving as peer mentors and consultants to other faculty.

One-year Faculty Research Fellowships starting in Spring 2023 will support instructors who have completed training in course redesign strategies and would like to conduct research on the impact of applying evidence-based redesign techniques to related student/course outcomes.

Up to four faculty research fellowships will be available per strategy. The first phase will focus on the following areas with the following leads:

• • Adobe Creative Campus –  Sara Schulz, (sara.schulz@austincc.edu)
  • Internship/COOP Development – Kathryn Naughton (kathryn.naughton@austincc.edu)
  • iPads in the Classroom – Richard Palmer (rpalmer@austincc.edu)
  • Great Questions – Ted Hadzi-Antich (thadzian@austincc.edu)
  • Quality Matters – Ninghua Han (ninghua.han@austincc.edu)
  • Service Learning – Linda Cox (lcox@austincc.edu)

Applications for 2023 will be available in late fall 2022.  Selection and announcements will be made in early December 2022. If you want to receive a reminder, please subscribe here.

Faculty must have completed the required training to be eligible. Check with the fellowship lead listed to determine your eligibility if unsure.

Upon successful completion of the fellowship program, faculty will receive compensation and be eligible for the next level of the fellowship starting in January 2024.
