The Faculty Learning and Integration Model developed by David Ernst at the University of Minnesota offers a transformative approach to faculty development. Unlike traditional technology training, which often fails to address real classroom needs, this model emphasizes identifying specific course challenges and opportunities. By providing faculty with time, space, motivation, and expert support, the model helps educators explore various tech tools in context, allowing them to effectively integrate technology into their teaching. This leads to significant pedagogical improvements tailored to individual course objectives.
