Daniel Thursz Distinguished Professor of Social Justice Corey Shdaimah, PhD, and Associate Professor Debbie Gioia were chosen as part of the second cohort of the UMB Center for Global Engagement’s GLOBALtimore Teaching fellows for the 2020-2021 academic hear. They join a cohort of faculty and staff from schools across campus for this year’s focus, which is collaborative online learning (COIL). The GLOBALtimore Teaching Fellows Program consists of workshops, support stipends, and membership in a learning community of faculty from across UMB’s professional and graduate schools to learn about global education and how to integrate global concepts into new or existing courses.
