Seattle University is gearing up for its 2013 Supporting New
Faculty Success cohort, but there are still a couple of open seats!
“For the first time in its 100-year history, the
community college is seeing a new learner. Students are ethnically and linguistically
more diverse, have more varied levels of skills and experience, often have many
competing demands for their time, and have complex aspirations and goals.
These new learners want to succeed, and their success is
helped by instructors' abilities to respond to their changing needs.
Instructors are now required to be equipped not only with expertise in their
subject area, but armed with teaching skills, resources and support networks to
train today's new community college students.
Seattle University’s year-long Supporting New Faculty
Success (SNFS) program supports community college faculty success, helping new
instructors hone the skills required to teach these new learners. SNFS is open
to all community college instructors with 3 years of full-time teaching
experience or less. No need to be in the Seattle area; we’ll meet via
Collaborate so that faculty statewide can participate!
The 2013 cohort will begin on January 3, but it’s not too
late to register! Find more details on our webpage at
https://www.seattleu.edu/coe/snfs/
or email Lindsey at kaferl@seattleu.edu
with questions.”
