The Blended Learning Innovation in Pedagogy (BLIP) initiative, a partnership between the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL), Academic Technologies, Ecampus, and the Office of Academic Affairs, is currently recruiting lead instructors interested in redesigning large enrollment courses on campus.
Lead instructors will work alongside the BLIP Faculty Fellow, Dr. Raechel Soicher, in exploring and developing solutions for teaching challenges, redeveloping their courses by integrating these solutions, and teaching their redeveloped courses.
Instructors and tenured/tenure-track faculty who teach credit-based Corvallis campus, large enrollment (n>80) courses are eligible to apply. See the Call for Proposals and apply by February 14.
About the BLIP Faculty Fellow:
Dr. Raechel Soicher is currently an instructor in the School of Psychological Science. Raechel earned her PhD in Fall 2020 in the same department. Her dissertation focused on the implementation of a motivational intervention in General Psychology courses at OSU. Prior to graduate school, Raechel was a tenure-track community college professor, where she conducted classroom research on the effect of metacognitive exam review tools on student learning. Her background in cognitive neuroscience and applied research have combined synergistically to support her own teaching innovations. She is excited to delve into supporting other faculty to do the same.
