Pedagogically Innovative Educator (PIE) Series

2024-2025

Inspired by the vision of Dr. Aileen Hower and Dr. Miriam Witmer, the 2024-2025 Pedagogically Innovative Educator (PIE) Series will feature the innovative practices of one PIE faculty or faculty group from each college.

Departments can nominate, or faculty/faculty teams can apply, via this application. Deans of each college will select their college’s innovative educator(s). Departments and colleges will define what innovation means within their disciplines.

A PIE website will highlight each college’s innovative pedagogical practices with their featured faculty and companion videos, documents, and/or other resources.

PIE educators can also elect to hold follow-up learning sessions through the CAE to share their practices with colleagues.  Their work will also be showcased and recognized at an upcoming faculty celebration.
