午夜影院

Back in 2022, Erica Reed, 午夜影院鈥檚 Director of Learning and Development in Academic Affairs, along with a team of faculty members, started researching and developing the . This framework, which is still in progress, provides a comprehensive structure for providing faculty development in teaching and learning for 午夜影院 faculty. It also sets out a list of Seven Principles of Effective Learning that offers a common definition of what it means to teach, work, and be educated at 午夜影院. All faculty and staff can follow the seven principles in their day-to-day work in an effort to create a high-quality educational experience for all 午夜影院 students.

鈥淲hile this framework was originally designed for faculty, everyone at 午夜影院, from support staff to administrators, plays a role in creating the environment we want students to experience while they鈥檙e here,鈥� Erica says. 鈥淲e also want staff to know that they likely already do things to live out these principles day-in and day-out. More than anything, the principles are simply a guide for how we can demonstrate 午夜影院鈥檚 Core Values to students.鈥澛�

Some of the highlights of the seven principles include:

• Prepare students to reach their goals of academic success, graduation/transfer, and workforce success.
• Invite and welcome diversity of identity, experience, and learning by creating inclusive environments.
• Respect students as individuals with lived experiences to help enhance their sense of belonging and self-confidence.
• Incorporate class and college experiences that help students build cultural and interpersonal skills.聽
• Develop and deepen students鈥� potential by assisting students as they navigate their education and career pathway, and support students鈥� needs by centering student well-being.

Moving forward, Erica and the Presidential Fellow for the Framework for Quality Education, Corrie Andries, want to encourage staff and faculty to think about the things they already do that help promote the principles and then find new and expanded ways to embody them.聽

鈥淔aculty and staff are already practicing these principles, so we really want the emphasis to be on how we can do more of those great things,鈥� Corrie says. 鈥淔or example, the operations staff does more than maintain our campus. They create a sense of peace, beauty, and belonging, which impacts the student experience. Everyone truly plays a role in executing these principles and I think that鈥檚 what makes them so special鈥�
