Brusilovsky awarded Pitt's "Innovation in Education" grant
Peter Brusilovsky, Professor at the iSchool, was recently honored by the University of Pittsburgh Provost’s Advisory Council on Instructional Excellence with an “Innovation in Education” Award. The awards are designed to support projects that enhance teaching, foster new instructional approaches, facilitate collaboration among faculty, develop innovative course materials, and create significant curricular improvements. Dr. Brusilovsky’s funded project will develop a visualization interface to promote online reading through a visual comparison of peer students’ progress with the same reading material. Instructors depend upon students to complete weekly reading assignments so that class-time can be devoted to more interactive and advanced learning activities. Learn more.
