Academic year 2024-2025
We seek a small cohort of instructors in T&D and BSOM, representing a diverse range of course types (ensemble, small/specialized, larger/survey) who are interested in joining us in following the parameters of our project and collaboratively developing a variety of strategies with us for their implementation in their courses during the 2024-2025 academic year.
Members of the Rigorously Compassionate Cohort will be compensated $1200 (which can be taken either as taxed income or as untaxed professional development funds). Responsibilities will involve:
- Developing and documenting strategies as described above
- Meeting monthly as a cohort with the project leads (Andrew Dell’Antonio and EG Gionfriddo) to share and brainstorm
- Identifying a small number of students at the end of the Fall 2024 semester to join the cohort in discussing the outcomes of the approach across courses / disciplines and strategize for Spring 2025
- Repeating the process with the same cohort/different courses in Spring 2025
- Recommending shifts/clarification to project call and parameters for Rigorously Compassionate Cohort #2 (AY 25–26)
- Writing a short (500-1,000 word) blog post for the project blog in Spring 2025
