The first cohort of Teaching Scholars began in the summer of 2000 with fourteen faculty members from a variety of disciplines and campuses. These scholars committed themselves to study their teaching and to work with colleagues and students over a year to better develop the scholarship of teaching and to enhance learning. In 2003-2004, eleven faculty were selected to participate in this year-long program, based on their proposed teaching-related projects. The Teaching Scholars for Early Career Faculty is a Faculty Learning Community program that promotes shared scholarly inquiry about teaching projects and builds relationships with student associates and faculty mentors. Scholars work with colleagues from the Collegial Development of Teaching Project, the University Teaching Council, and members of the scholarship of teaching committee of the Faculty Professional Development Center Council.
