PTF Impacts
Provost's Teaching Fellows have made lasting impacts in their departments, colleges and schools, all of the University of Texas, and even the broader scholarship of teaching and learning. Through both individual initiatives and university-wide programs, PTFs continue to serve as catalysts for positive change and further our campus culture of teaching and learning.

Drivers Exercise
Before deciding what your career goals are, it’s critical to know what you value most in a job. What gets you out of bed to go to start the day, go to work, and/or live your life? This exercise will help you define and prioritize what drives you. We provide definitions of 8 common "drivers". Once you understand these drivers, you can take the exercise and go through a ranking process to determine which are most important to you (i.e. you’re less likely to compromise on these) and which are less important (i.e. you’re more willing to compromise on these).
Standardized elements for OCSE
Objective Structured Clinical Examinations, known as OSCEs, are a widely established assessment practice in Pharmacy education. PTF Renee Acosta created OSCE rubrics as part of her PTF initiative to help students gain constructive feedback and more consistent practice of their skills prior to moving on to future courses. Acosta's rubrics that have since been used as the foundation for future PTF projects and other OSCE rubrics used within department.
