The Center for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT) presented awards to four faculty members at its recent 8th<\/sup> Annual CTLT Conference.<\/p>\n

The Outstanding Faculty Mentorship Award was presented to Dr. Paulo Castillo, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering technology, for his mentorship of students that extends well beyond the classroom. Student Kevin Kucharczyk wrote, \u201cProfessor Castillo has been a great influence in building my network, making sure that I have a multi-disciplinary background to enhance my opportunities and expand my perspective for my career. I am extremely thankful to have such a great mentor and professor.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Innovative Pedagogy Award went to Dr. Angela Jones, associate professor of sociology and anthropology. Dr. Jones presented a portfolio of experiential learning activities she incorporates into three upper-division sociology courses.\u00a0 Students create self-published autoethnographies; children\u2019s books that present gender in non-normative ways; and social issue posters featuring photographs they take themselves. One student commented, \u201cI felt that I was more engaged in the field and felt like an actual sociologist. Our final project really taught me a lot about my social justice issue.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year the committee awarded two Outstanding Scholarly Publication awards: one in STEM, and one in social sciences or humanities.<\/p>\n

The Outstanding Scholarly Publication Award in STEM went to Dr. Jack Simonson, assistant professor of physics, for his article, “A generalizable multigram synthesis and mechanistic investigation of YMnO3 nanoplates,” in Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research<\/em>.\u00a0 The article – one of 29 outstanding invited papers from the American Chemical Society National Meeting – was featured in a virtual special issue of I&EC Research<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Outstanding Scholarly Publication Award in Social Sciences or Humanities was awarded to Dr. Jing Betty Feng, assistant professor of business management, for her work, \u201cImproving intercultural competence in the classroom: A reflective development model,\u201d in the Journal of Teaching in International Business.<\/em> The article won Dr. Feng the Inaugural CUIBE award for Best Paper on Teaching International Business.<\/p>\n

Faculty and professionals are encouraged to apply in fall 2019 for next year’s awards. At that time, scholarly publication award applications will be accepted for works published in 2018. For more information, contact CTLT@farmingdale.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
