Experiential Learning Faculty Learning Group and Fellowship

The purpose of this Learning Group (Spring) and Fellowship (Yearly) is to provide a pedagogical grounding in experiential learning, exposure to the tools and services available to the Baylor Community, and collaborative engagement with Experiential Learning staff that can help faculty develop and execute experiential learning opportunities effectively in their courses utilizing the equipment and spaces offered through the Experiential Learning Commons (ELC).

The Faculty Learning Group will be a bi-monthly group of 10-12 faculty focused on learning about experiential learning, exploring various equipment, spaces, and services in the ELC, and active development of an assignment or in-class experience that utilizes their learning throughout the semester.

The Fellowship will be a focused collaboration between faculty and Experiential Learning staff. It will be limited to 4 faculty, split between Media and Making with the Academic Consultant, Digital Media and Makerspace Manager taking up to 2 faculty for advising per cohort. During the Fall semester the Fellows will work with the Experiential Learning team to develop an assignment and re-envision their syllabus to utilize ELC resources to create experiential learning opportunities. This will also include tool training and prototyping assignments to ensure faculty set proper expectations for success and meet learning objectives through their designed activity. In the Spring, Fellows will pilot their syllabus and assignment/activity in the course and utilize the resources of the ELC in collaboration with their advisor. Following the semester they will report their success, challenges, and adjustments for future ELC incorporation.

Participation in the Learning Group and application to the Fellowship will be announced soon.
