Dr. Candis Watts SmithVice Provost, Undergrad. Education

“Every time I interact with the Learning Innovation team, I come away feeling optimistic and with some sort of evidence-based tool or strategy that I can use to help my students learn – and to help them think about learning how to learn – and with a sense of community support. Learning Innovation in many ways is a connecting node for folks around campus who want to elevate their craft, grapple with new ideas, think about challenges together, and to learn from one another.”

Dr. Sheila PatekDirector of Muser

“Learning Innovation is an integral partner with Muser. They guided our university-wide launching of the program and encouraged our technology-based innovations for equity and inclusion. Muser has benefited tremendously from the breadth and expertise of LI’s staff and the depth of their engagement in supporting this important initiative here and beyond Duke.”

Dr. Cecilia MarquezAsst. Professor of History

“Having the opportunity to work as a Collaborative Project Course Fellow with both Duke Learning Innovation and Bass Connections has transformed the way I teach. They helped me integrate active learning pedagogies and project-based assignments in my courses. I am so lucky to have found this amazing group and look forward to continuing to grow as a teacher in partnership with them!”
