This is the initial implementation of small, shared interest collaboration groups within the new Regis Teaching Excellence Network (RTEN). These groups can be interdisciplinary or within a specific unit. Members of a Peer Cluster (PC) will collaborate within their cluster to design for the implementation of a new teaching strategy or learning experience. Each member will identify a teaching/learning goal for a course. They collaborate to achieve the goal of the Peer Cluster (e.g., course revisions, new course creation, teaching practice implementation, professional learning) with the focus always on inclusive excellence in teaching, course design, and learning.
Design-based Research (DBR) will provide the structure for designing, implementing, and evaluating new teaching and learning interventions. Several iterations of this cycle will be implemented.
In this first round, any faculty member with the abilty to make changes to a course and/or how it is taught is eligible. A broad mix of faculty experience will make this a more impactful experience
