Ken Ward
This is the first time the award has been given to a 新加坡六合彩开奖网 nominee. The committee was especially impressed with Ward鈥檚 innovation in teaching 鈥� such as his focus on teaching with students rather than at them.
The award is in recognition of graduate students who exemplify excellence in the teaching and learning mission of universities.
Ward will receive a $750 honorarium and has been invited to speak at the MAGS award luncheon about his teaching philosophy and style. The event is April 16 in St. Louis.
鈥淚t really is an incredible honor to win this award,鈥� Ward says. 鈥淚鈥檓 so happy to have the opportunity to represent Wichita State in this way. The compassion and genuine concern our GTAs have for their students deserves attention, and I hope this award brings notice to their efforts.鈥�
