This interactive workshop will help learning support program staff maximize faculty partnerships. Presenters will share a highly networked model, including faculty development programs. Participants will map opportunities, complete an analysis of priorities, and create an action plan for strengthening bridges to faculty partnerships to enhance student learning.
Presenters will demonstrate various models of faculty partnerships, including ways to integrate learning support staff and/or programs with faculty development; participants will map current collaborations and future opportunities at their own institutions.
Presenters will facilitate a SWOT analysis activity; participants will identify strengths, brainstorm ways to circumvent potential weaknesses, make a plan to leverage or enlist likely allies, and anticipate ways to overcome possible obstacles in strengthening faculty partnerships.
Participants will give and receive feedback on their analyses.
Participants will complete an action plan to take back to their institutions.
