KENNESAW, Ga. | Apr 19, 2024
Last week marked a milestone for the Norman J. Radow College of Humanities and Social Sciences as it unveiled its pioneering Office of Academic Innovation (OAI). This visionary resource will enhance student learning through evidence-based approaches in the humanities and social sciences disciplines.
"As the pace of change in the world accelerates, so must our approach to education," remarked Katie Kaukinen, Ph.D., Dean of the Norman J. Radow College. "The Office of Academic Innovation will be the standard-bearer for providing students with the most effective and engaging learning experiences. By expanding access to evidence-based practices, we empower them to instill a love for learning in our students and continue to equip them with the necessary skills to excel in a world that demands critical thinking and innovation."
The success of the OAI's mission hinges on collaboration. The college continues to seek to harness the expertise of its faculty and foster partnerships in the broader community. Collaborations and endowments from with workforce partners such as Merlin Wealth Management, which resulted in a series of financial education micro-credentials, underscore the OAI's commitment to preparing our students not just their first job after graduation, but to arm them with valuable, transferable skills that are applicable in any career.
In addition to offering micro-credentials to enhance student learning experiences, the OAI offers a range of opportunities for faculty to hone their own skills, and develop tools and teaching strategies that can be incorporated into curriculum, opportunities such as:
With three schools and eight departments that serve nearly 8,000 students, Radow College offers over 80 programs of study across the humanities and social sciences.
