Emory in Words and Pictures
Teaching | |||||
| Emory's mission is not contained within classroom walls. The partnership between Emory and Atlanta is vitally important to both parties. | |||||
The Univeristy Teaching Fund provides $250,000 annually to support teaching improvement and innovation for the development of new and nontraditional courses and curricula; and for interdisciplinary and extracurricular courses and programs. Emory College established the Center for Teaching and Curriculum to reward excelent teaching throughout Emory College; and provide support for the development of new courses, curricula, and methods of instruction. The Candler School of Theology's new curriculum takes a different direction in training seminarians by emphasizing the practices of Christianity every bit as much as the preaching of it. Recent changes in the medical school curriculum emphasize earlier introduciton of patient care, more small-group teaching, and a focus on ethics and patient communication skills. |
