Becoming A Fellow

[ Becoming A Fellow | Current Fellows | Getting Involved ]

The Teaching Academy is seeking nominations to select teacher-scholars as Fellows in the Teaching Academy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Nominees may be any faculty or staff member actively involved in teaching on this campus. Nominees should be outstanding university educators who are concerned about teaching, and who want to enrich the learning environment at the University of Wisconsin. The Academy particularly welcomes individuals who have demonstrated excellence through classroom innovation, program development, grant funding, publications, presentations, or committee work related to teaching or learning.

The Teaching Academy welcomes your nominations of candidates to be Teaching Academy Fellows in recognition of their teaching excellence and for their commitment to actively participate in a spirited forum for discussion, debate, and enhancement of teaching and learning through Teaching Academy events on the campus or through our new webpage (https://tle.wisc.edu/teaching-academy).

Application/Nomination materials should be sufficiently detailed to allow judgment of excellence, but sufficiently brief to avoid undue burden for the nominee and selection committee. The maximum length of the application is 12 pages typed and double spaced, including selective, brief attachments.

Nominations are reviewed only during the Spring semester.

Nomination materials missing any requested information will be returned unreviewed.

For details of what is needed in the nomination process, please refer to the Fellows Nomination Packet in Word or Fellows Nomination Packet in a PDF
