BTSE: Bridging to STEM Excellence
×
A Consortium for Faculty Development

The "Bridging to STEM Excellence" project (BTSE) aims to accelerate changes in teaching through forming a consortium of national professional development organizations. The BTSE consortium organizations will fill a needed gap by integrating their respective strategies that support individual faculty in improving their teaching practice and to encourage broader use of evidence-based practices by institutions, departments and programs.
The BTSE project's goal is to accelerate change in higher education and teacher preparation. To this end, BTSE aims to develop 1) a bridge between institutional efforts to improve instruction and national initiatives offering programmatic support and 2) a community of practice increasing the interactions among and reach of the consortium organizations. Leveraging NSF investments over the past two decades, BTSE integrates disciplinary and institutional approaches to provide holistic support for faculty as scientists and educators.
