Nine Essential Traits of the Effective Professor

This 60 minute online seminar will also prepare you to make simple and sometimes subtle changes to incorporate or develop practices and traits that resonate with students and yield improved academic outcomes.

Presenter Ellen Smyth is an award-winning professor of mathematics and statistics at Austin Peay State University. In recognition of her willingness to adopt and utilize engaging new technologies and approaches, she was named the 2010 Innovative Professor by the Austin Peay Center for Extended and Distance Education. Smyth enjoys using audio, video, and other media to make content more accessible to and manageable for students, and she eagerly embraces training opportunities to learn new skills and approaches to take into the classroom.
