Willoughby Fellows Program
What is it
The Willoughby Fellows Program in Academic Technology is a year-long opportunity for Dickinson faculty to develop courses that will use new media to engage students in scholarship, research, or service learning. Founded on the values of inquiry and engagement that define Dickinson’s vision for academic excellence, the program will provide training, technical support, and community resources to help faculty prepare courses that engage students in active learning approaches to creating, communicating and presenting knowledge. Fellows will learn about new modes of visualizing information and genres of scholarly communication, and they will be introduced to pedagogical models to support the use of these new media in the classroom. A cohort of six fellows will be selected with equal representation from Divisions I, II, and III. Each Fellow will receive a $1000 stipend for her or his participation.
