FACULTY FELLOWS
Faculty Fellows work with faculty in teacher preparation programs to co-design integrated computing activities for their teachers.
OUR PROCESS
The fellow attends a group meeting to learn about options before working individually with faculty from the Snap Inc. Center to identify a suitable topic within their discipline for a computing integration activity.
- The fellow and Snap Inc. faculty co-design an activity for the topic.
- The fellow provides disciplinary content knowledge, and the Snap Inc. faculty provides computing knowledge.
- The co-designed activity should primarily serve disciplinary learning goals in the fellow’s discipline, but also introduce teachers to computing concepts and tools.
- The fellow and Snap Inc. faculty co-teach the activity to preservice teachers in the fellow’s course.
- Snap Inc. faculty are available to adapt the activity and support instruction for implementation in following years.
