SWIMMING UPSTREAM AND MOVING MOUNTAINS: COLLABORATIVE TEACHING AS A MEANS TO TRANSFORM UNDERGRADUATE STEM COURSES

Transforming undergraduate STEM education is vital to maintaining international competitiveness and increasing entry into and persistence in STEM majors. Countless calls for change have come from prestigious scientific organizations, and millions of dollars of funding have been directed at reform. Yet, very few faculty have actually transformed their courses. This presents a puzzling question: why aren’t smart people making necessary changes? Perhaps one reason even well-informed faculty don’t transform their courses is the lack of time, knowledge and/or rewards to initiate and implement reform. But more resources are not always available, thus, faculty must leverage their most valuable resources—their colleagues—and create high-impact collaborative learning environments for themselves. These environments, which are known to foster powerful student learning and outcomes, can also powerfully foster faculty innovation.
