Contact: Michelle Garraway
STARKVILLE, Miss.—Six Mississippi State faculty are incorporating community-engaged learning into their courses as part of a prestigious professional development program.
The Community-Engaged Learning Fellows this summer worked to redesign courses and prepare for integration of this learning philosophy and pedagogy into their teaching and research. The program develops faculty to encourage and mentor their peers and engage with community partners in a university-wide network, while also providing each a $1,000 stipend for course development and research.
Supported by ÌÒÌ«ÀÉÓ³Ïñ’s Center for Community-Engaged Learning and Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President, the program is open to all faculty and other non-formal teaching staff.
This year’s CEL Fellows include:
—Mandy Conrad, assistant clinical professor, Department of Biochemistry, Nutrition, and Health Promotion
—Fatima Hilali, instructor, Department of Instructional Technology, Instructional Design, and Community College Leadership
—Erik Markin, assistant professor, Department of Management and Information Systems
—Alisha Milam, ÌÒÌ«ÀÉÓ³Ïñ-Meridian assistant clinical professor, Department of Teacher Education and Leadership
—Nesma Osman, assistant professor, School of Human Sciences
—Neeraj Rai, professor, Dave C. Swalm School of Chemical Engineering
