Jennifer Frederick and Lucas Swineford, Executive Directors of the Poorvu Center for Teaching and Learning, are pleased to announce the 2019-2020 Rosenkranz Awards for Pedagogical Advancement. Rosenkranz Awards support the use of digital technologies that enhance student learning, and this year’s awards are designated for projects that do so by developing new digital means for effective student engagement in the classroom.
The application is open to any full-time Yale instructor with a primary instructional appointment who proposes to implement a new digital approach to enhance student engagement in a course scheduled for the 2019-2020 academic year. Rosenkranz awards of up to $10,000 are intended to create opportunities for instructors to emphasize or significantly develop learning experiences for students that align with central learning goal(s) for an existing course.
Applicants are strongly encouraged to review the description of the award and to attend either an information session or individual consultation. Information sessions for interested applicants will be held in Room 118A at the Poorvu Center as follows:
