Faculty-to-Faculty (F2F) aims to foster a culture of pedagogical excellence and informal mentoring within our academic community. Through F2F, expert teachers are invited to open their classrooms and studios to colleagues from all colleges across the university. This will create opportunities for observation, dialogue, and professional growth in the spirit of making teaching more public.

F2F available class sessions

Guest seats are prioritized for:  Junior faculty and faculty re-entering instructional roles, or picking up new types of instructional roles (e.g., faculty newly teaching high enrollment courses) are particularly encouraged to apply.

How does it work?

During February 2025,  small groups of faculty will observe the host of their choice teaching a class, and then meet with the host to discuss the pedagogy.  The observation will focus on pedagogy, not content, and the host will choose the specific day for observation.  The program encourages cross-disciplinary learning and collaboration so guest applicants should not feel compelled to select observation opportunities within their discipline.

In the ensuing weeks, guests will meet with their host to discuss the featured pedagogy. Observers gain insights into effective teaching practices, diverse teaching styles, innovative techniques, assessment methods, and classroom management. Participants will be able to build connections across disciplines.

All participants will be invited to a celebration mid-March and guests will be given an opportunity to follow up with the director of F2F in Fall 2025 to assist with implementation of new strategies learned.
