As a faculty partner in the program, you\u2019ll work closely with a Student Partner (an outstanding undergraduate student recruited and trained by the Center for Teaching &amp; Learning) to make meaningful changes that improve the student experience in a particular course. Student Partners offer feedback and input on the class grounded in the student perspective. In collaboration with their faculty partner, Student Partners:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>attend the class they are focused on, offering feedback to instructors based on their own perspective as students.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>use survey and interview tools to gather feedback from students in the class.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>prepare reports for the instructor based on their observations and student feedback.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>help instructors to understand how students are experiencing their class.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>serve as thought partners for instructors in considering strategies for responding to student feedback.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Faculty who have worked with the program previously have reported that it helped them to make changes (for both the current term, and future iterations of the courses) in the areas of active learning, pacing, student engagement, and making their courses more welcoming for all learners. In addition, they\u2019ve reported that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201cMy student partner was incredible and offered amazing insight. I learned a lot from [them] and was able to make small changes to the course throughout the semester that helped student engagement.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cI was reminded of a few simple things I can do to significantly impact how students receive the course.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cHaving another set of eyes in the back of a very large room was incredibly insightful in terms of understanding and quantifying student engagement. With all the things I have going on in my mind when teaching, it\u2019s not always feasible to pay attention to every single student\u2019s level of engagement in a large course.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cThe benefit for me was the access to feedback that is less susceptible to the power dynamics that surround the student-professor relationship.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cIt helped me to start understanding the generational differences that exist between me and my students.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cBeing able to get daily feedback that was actionable, and frequent anonymized input from students, let me course-correct tangibly right away!\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cMy student partner was able to collect opinions \/ experiences that are seldom communicated directly from student to instructor.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019d love to have you as a faculty partner for the spring, but spots are limited! <a href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/ejGGusYBZgFtKRdQA\">Complete an application<\/a> as soon as possible; applications received before November 14 will receive priority consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By Daniel Sanford<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Center for Teaching and Learning is currently recruiting faculty partners to work with CTL&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3465,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3054,3055,102,72,122],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-68522","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-announcements","category-scholarly-teaching","category-interact","category-supporting-student-learning","category-t-r-e"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.2 (Yoast SEO v28.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Faculty Application for CTL Student Partners Program - CTL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/ctl\/blog\/2025\/10\/26\/faculty-application-for-ctl-student-partners-program\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Faculty Application for CTL Student Partners Program\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Center for Teaching and Learning is currently recruiting faculty partners to work with CTL...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.boisestate.edu\/ctl\/blog\/2025\/10\/26\/faculty-application-for-ctl-student-partners-program\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"CTL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-10-26T15:00:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"allysonmaclellan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"allysonmaclellan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.boisestate.edu\\\/ctl\\\/blog\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/26\\\/faculty-application-for-ctl-student-partners-program\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.boisestate.edu\\\/ctl\\\/blog\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/26\\\/faculty-application-for-ctl-student-partners-program\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"allysonmaclellan\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.boisestate.edu\\\/ctl\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/d3ad245a5e5180e7f7e0669f13560cc2\"},\"headline\":\"Faculty Application for CTL Student Partners Program\",\"datePublished\":\"2025-10-26T15:00:00+00:00\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.boisestate.edu\\\/ctl\\\/blog\\\/2025\\\/10\\\/26\\\/faculty-application-for-ctl-student-partners-program\\\/\"},\"wordCount\":450,\"articleSection\":[\"Announcements\",\"Scholarly Teaching\",\"Student\\\/Instructor Interactions\",\"Supporting Student Learning\",\"Teaching Reflection &amp;
