Students whose instructors regularly visit the Faculty Engagement Center achieve statistically significantly higher quiz scores than students whose instructors do not.<\/h4>\n

Instructors play the<\/i> primary role in improving student success. You decide how in-class time is used, what kinds of activities and assessments students will engage with, which educational materials students will use, and make dozens of other choices to support student learning every term. But how do you get the support you<\/i> need to improve student success?<\/p>\n

For example, you\u2019ve probably heard that using active learning in class will increase student learning. But you also know that preparing those activities takes a lot of time, and so you may have (rationally) decided to put off using active learning in your class again this term.<\/p>\n

Here’s some good news! The comprehensive support resources in Lumen One\u2019s Faculty Engagement Center make using active learning simple and easy. These resources include fully prepared active learning activities for each week, including an instructor guide you can review quickly to get ready to lead the activity and slides you can use in class to guide your students.<\/p>\n

The Faculty Engagement Center includes many other time-saving tools that can help you improve student success.<\/p>\n

For example, a real-time view of students\u2019 understanding of the week\u2019s topics lets you decide, at a glance, which topics you should spend more time on during class and which you might not need to address as deeply. Additionally, the Get to Know Your Students tool helps you quickly access students\u2019 preferred names and majors, their class activity, and other relevant information that will make office hours visits more powerful – and more efficient. And messaging tools make it easy to send notes to students congratulating them for excellent work, send study tips, or invite them to office hours when they\u2019re struggling.<\/p>\n

The Faculty Engagement Center in Lumen One makes it simple and easy to use more evidence-based teaching practices in your teaching. A review of Fall 2023 data shows that students whose faculty access the Faculty Engagement Center at least twice a week achieve quiz scores two points higher on average than students whose faculty visit the Faculty Engagement Center monthly or less often.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
