Peer-to-Peer Pedagogical Partners

Peer-to-Peer Pedagogical Partners are faculty members who provide support for their colleagues in departments, colleges, and schools. They share information about teaching strategies and educational technologies though individual, group, or departmental meetings; contribute to and communicate about CTL resources; and may support other CTL educational programs. P2P partners meet regularly with the CTL staff  throughout the academic year.

About the Peer-to-Peer Pedagogical Partners Program

The Faculty Coach program has relaunched! Faculty coaches supported their colleagues in so many ways during the COVID-19 pandemic: providing suggestions for adapting teaching strategies to remote and hybrid classes; helping with the integration of educational technologies in classes; and providing much-needed moral support at a time of great stress for faculty and students.

Now, we are taking what we learned from this experience and re-imagining the faculty coach role as a peer partner. Working with CTL, Peer-to-Peer Pedagogical Partners (P2P) will provide support for their colleagues in departments, colleges, and schools. Some P2P Partners with specialist skills in areas such as inclusive pedagogy, specific technologies, or particular teaching approaches may also provide broader support, if requested.

This CTL Program is inspired by the following BU Strategic Planning Pillars: A Vibrant Academic Experience and Community, Big Yet Small
