Faculty Innovation Showcase: Innovations in Online Teaching and Learning

Join Salem State University’s Center for Teaching Innovation (CTI) for our annual end-of-semester Faculty Innovation Showcase, held on Reading Day, prior to the university holiday party.

This year’s showcase theme is Innovations in Online Teaching and Learning. Online learning continues to grow at Salem State, and CTI is honored to highlight some of the ways faculty are incorporating and engaging with online components in fully online, hybrid, and in-person modalities. Join faculty from a range of disciplines as they share and reflect on recent experiences with student-centered online course design, experiential learning, international collaborations, and engaged research in the contemporary classroom.
