The Banyan Tree [Volume 2, Number 1], Alan Altany

Faculty Center: News & Publications

Excerpt: "I started college teaching without really knowing how people learn or how to teach so that my students would learn in effective, enduring ways. I simply starting talking about my discipline, with some class discussions thrown in. I had no apprenticeship, no internship or mentoring to help me learn to teach. It was individual trial and error. I now know it doesn’t have to be that way. What if there were ways to glean from among the hundreds of faculty at Georgia Southern and their thousands of years of teaching experience some of their knowledge, understanding, even wisdom, about …

Marvin S. Pittman: A Historical Inquiry Of His Life, Legacy And Leadership, Pamela Frost Altman

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

This dissertation is an inquiry into the educational leadership style of Marvin Summers Pittman, April 12, 1882-February 27, 1954. Pittman was a transformational leader with a vision to set goals that sometimes appeared to be outside the box during his time as an educational leader. Pittman introduced new and innovative programs in education, including his zone plan for teacher training, and theories for the consolidation of schools. Pittman understood that education was the tool needed to give power back to the people, and to enable them to be productive citizens. Education was Pittman's tool to bring the poor farm boy …

The Banyan Tree [Volume 1, Number 2], Alan Altany

Faculty Center: News & Publications

Excerpt: "Why do we teach the way we do? What are our assumptions about our teaching, students, and how they learn? Is student learning significant and transformative in our courses? Do our exams, assignments, grading practices, etc. assess and promote “deep learning”? Are we enjoying working with students as much or more than when we first became teachers? What do we know about the research on how college students best learn and how best to teach our disciplines for such learning to occur? Do we know the pedagogical research literature? What if there were a way to approach teaching and …

The Banyan Tree [Volume 1, Number 1], Alan Altany

Faculty Center: News & Publications

Excerpt: "Program change is underway at the Center for Excellence in Teaching & Learning. Having taught college for about twenty years and directed a faculty center at another university, I became the full-time director of the CET in June 2006. With the collaboration and work of the whole staff, we have begun a new and re-imagined stage in the CET’s support for faculty in teaching, student learning, scholarship, and academic life. The banyan tree, the “tree that walks,” is now our logo. For why we are hanging out in its branches, and swinging from its roots, go to http://academics.georgiasouthern.edu/cet/banyan.htm. With …
