Overview
The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) is a leader in supporting teaching excellence and quality teaching across all units and colleges and in support of a range of instructional modalities. We see CTL Faculty Fellows as central to helping coordinate efforts in pedagogical support and liaising with colleges, departments, and other units on campus to ensure we are meeting the needs of instructors and GTAs.
CTL invites up to five Teaching Excellence Faculty Fellows to join our CTL team for the 2025-2026 academic year and help us in delivering programming and leading initiatives related to teaching and learning across campus. This is an opportunity for a faculty member interested in educational leadership and in higher education pedagogy to participate in building program initiatives related to teaching and learning and helping cultivate a culture of excellence in teaching across OSU.
In your application letter, we invite you to identify area(s) of interest and expertise you would bring to this CTL Fellowship and to which you would be interested in developing, co-facilitating, or leading programming. Some areas we are especially interested in working with CTL Fellows on include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Any of the High-Impact Practices (HIPs);
- Effective engagement strategies in large-enrolled classes;
- Digital accessibility and universal design for learning;
- Experiential learning, community-engaged, and service-learning pedagogies;
- Global learning and study abroad pedagogies;
- Strategies for mentoring and advising learners;
- Scholarly approaches to teaching/the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning;
- Course-based undergraduate research practices;
- Facilitating difficult conversations
CTL Fellows will be involved in coordination, design, and facilitation of faculty development around effective teaching and learning at OSU. Fellows will support CTL’s strategic goals of enhancing student success and developing a culture of teaching innovation at OSU. Fellows will also have opportunities to participate in leadership meetings and engage with colleagues in the CTL and related academic and administrative units. Note that this is not a research fellowship, though the Fellow may be involved in CTL data collection and assessment that may be published.
