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.

Bilingual Training Program in Audiology (Digital Badge)
The majority of the clinical population served at the UT Speech and Hearing Center is Spanish-speaking, yet there is no audiology-specific training for students providing care. This program provides targeted training for audiology graduate students to best serve their Spanish-speaking patients. The culmination of this experience results in a digital badge provided by the Moody College of Communication, which can be viewed here.
Pharmacy Practice Labs Promotional Videos
Two promotional videos were created to highlight the impact of Pharmacy Practice Labs and collaboration with UT Athletic Training.
The first video is specifically about the Pharmacy Practice Labs program. In this course sequence, students learn to navigate the pharmacists' patient care process in preparation for Introductory and Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences. Students utilize critical-thinking, problem-solving and communication skills to collect, assess, plan, implement and follow-up on patients at introductory and advanced levels.
