Carleton University’s Peggy Hartwick, instructor in the School of Linguistics and Language Studies, has won a 2015 Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (STLHE)/Brightspace Innovation Award in Teaching and Learning.
“I have been and continue to be totally fascinated by the potential learning benefits that certain technologies afford and I am always experimenting with these new technologies,” said Hartwick. “I feel very honoured to have been selected for this award. I am extremely grateful for all the support I have had from all levels in the university.”
Hartwick is one of five award winners and is being recognized for her exceptional dedication to teaching and learning and her innovative approaches. The STLHE/Brightspace award was created to support the type of activities that she utilizes in her teaching.
The winners will be celebrated on June 18 in Vancouver at an award ceremony during the 2015 STLHE Annual Conference. Each of the winners will receive a two-year membership in STLHE, as well as $2,200 toward travel and registration costs for Brightspace’s annual users’ conference, FUSION 2015, and STLHE’s Annual Conference.
