Master Teacher Paul Ulrich's Key Takeaway: Innovative College Teaching

Dr. Paul Ulrich (Georgia State University): “Encouragement of students is essential to my approach. I tell my students that I have greater confidence in their potential than they have in themselves, and I call them to rise to the challenge. For non-science students, I actively break down the lie that they are ‘just not good at science’.”

Master Teacher Benita's Moore's Key Takeaway: Innovative College Teaching

Dr. Benita Moore, Clayton State University (retired): “If you are offered a new responsibility that is not ‘pure teaching,’ be open to it. The new opportunity may or may not take you from the classroom but may open doors that are different than you could have imagined. Don’t be afraid to accept these opportunities. My 40+ years in education was enhanced because I said “yes” to opportunities that were presented to me, even if the new challenge was outside of my comfort zone.”
