In our effort to increase the value and academic standing of teaching, we implemented an initiative focused on scholarship in teaching. Our program was narrowly focused, project-based, peer-reviewed, resource-neutral, and open to all faculty. Faculty members are invited annually to submit a description of their educational projects in keeping with Glassick's criteria. Our purpose was to assess the effects of this award program.
