The 2019-20 cohort, the largest in the seven-year history of the program, joins more than 50 other faculty fellows dedicated to advancing community-engaged learning at Cornell and within their respective fields.
鈥淚鈥檓 delighted to welcome these brilliant and committed Engaged Faculty Fellows to the network,鈥 said Anna Sims Bartel, associate director of community-engaged curricula and practice in the Office of Engagement Initiatives.
鈥淭hey represent a diversity of projects and programs that will lead to rich conversations and collaborations among us and 鈥 even more importantly 鈥 will have important positive benefits for their students and community partners,鈥 she said. 鈥淔rom community-engaged deer management to public interest data science to collaborative case studies of small African agrobusinesses, the work of the fellows is contributing to their disciplines and to the world in powerful ways.鈥
During the yearlong cohort program, participants work in one of two communities of practice: The Faculty Fellows in Engaged Learning focus on designing, refining and enhancing engaged courses and curricula; the Faculty Fellows in Engaged Scholarship develop products of their public work, including articles for academic publication, conference presentations, op-ed pieces, manuals and more.
Each cohort will: explore theories and practices of community-engaged learning; meet monthly to discuss readings, projects and challenges; and expand the idea of what it means to teach and conduct research, with community partners, at Cornell.
