Outcomes
What fellows complete, what they leave with, and what the program returns to their departments or units and their students.
Coming soon
Scholarship and Program Impact.
Outcomes for the inaugural cohort will be published here in Spring 2027.
Completion
Three summative requirements
Successful completion of the E3 Fellows Program is demonstrated through three requirements, assessed alongside continuous formative feedback from faculty mentors.
An implemented and evaluated instructional innovation
Deployed in a Spring 2027 course of record and systematically evaluated, culminating in a scholarly teaching presentation at the CTE Interface Conference.
A final structured evaluation
Conducted jointly by the faculty mentor(s) and the Department or Unit Chair, assessing the fellow’s overall growth and readiness as an engineering educator.
For fellows
What fellows leave with
A teaching record
Three courses of record taught across two semesters, with documented formative feedback on planning, instruction, assessment, and student engagement.
A formal teaching credential
A completed University of Florida Center for Teaching Excellence certificate or program track.
A scholarly teaching contribution
A designed, implemented, and evaluated instructional innovation, presented publicly at the CTE Interface Conference.
Reflective teaching practice
Habits of observation, reflection, and iteration developed through sustained mentorship and guided classroom observation.
A mentoring relationship
An ongoing professional relationship with an experienced faculty mentor, and a documented assessment of readiness as an engineering educator.
A community of practice
Connection to UF’s broader teaching-development ecosystem and to a cross-disciplinary cohort of peers.
For departments & students
Impact beyond the fellow
Because fellows teach courses of record and implement their innovations inside real classrooms, the program’s effects reach students during the appointment itself — not only afterward.
- Instructional capacity added across six units of the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering.
- Evidence-based pedagogy, educational technology, and assessment strategies introduced into existing courses.
- Evaluated instructional innovations that departments can adopt or adapt beyond the pilot course.
- A pipeline of instructional faculty prepared for teaching-focused appointments.
