Back to CAL Graduate Certification in College Teaching

A centerpiece of the Certification in College Teaching is the completion of a mentored teaching project. A mentored teaching project involves you asking a teaching and learning question, developing an instrument to collect the data to answer that question, collect the data in the context of a course at MSU (most people do not collect data in their own classrooms), and write up what you learned.

Recipient has identified a problem to study, proposed an intervention or solution to the problem, and tested the solution. A short research paper discussing the problem, possible solution, methods used and outcomes has been submitted. This project should follow the guidelines outlined by the Graduate School.
