Faculty Spotlights

Faculty Spotlights are case studies of teaching innovations we’ve discovered here at Boise State University. Each Spotlight is composed of a video that highlights a Boise State faculty member and the exciting teaching approaches they are using in the classroom. These videos are complemented by additional resources about the particular teaching approaches used by the featured faculty member.
Why Spotlight?
Spotlighting faculty members utilizing innovative and active approaches to teaching allows us to see case studies of faculty trying out and implementing new teaching tools and techniques. It’s one thing to be exposed to an idea of a teaching tool or approach; it’s another thing to see it in action. We hope spotlights will be a resource for faculty interested in trying new teaching approaches, inside and outside of the classroom.
