“I have worked for years to develop ways I can configure my classroom experiences to enhance student learning,” Miller said. “It’s a big honor when your work has been recognized by your peers.”
Miller teaches Process and Quality Management (SCM 4367) in supply chain management. Process improvement, he said, is difficult to learn from a textbook or through traditional lectures. It is best experienced when immersed in the work, he added.
His solution: transform his classroom into an interactive space that encourages activity and hands-on problem solving through lively exercises.
Felvégi’s teaching relies on a multimedia approach that keeps students engaged and prioritizes microlearning, so lectures aren’t overwhelming.
The core of her class is centered around understanding how technology fits into the modern world. She uses a combination of video quizzes, Excel data assignments and artificial intelligence evaluations to support this idea. Additionally, it helps prepare students for the workforce by teaching them how to use these tools meaningfully.
Above all else, Felvégi said her teaching philosophy is rooted in creating meaningful learning experiences for her students. Each semester the course is updated to reflect the changing world using the latest in available learning technologies.
“I am grateful for the recognition of all the time and energy I’ve put into creating learning experiences for our students,” Felvégi said. “I encourage my colleagues to engage with all the wonderful faculty development opportunities I have benefited from. Our students will be richer for them.”
