Promoting Excellence in Education & Resource Sharing Initiative

The FDD Promoting Excellence in Education & Resource Sharing (PEERS) Initiative aims to provide primarily FDD instructors the support for enhancing current teaching methods, promoting various student-centered approaches through consultations, peer observations, course-design feedback, and professional development programs/workshops/seminars.  It will also manage and lay out the options for available classroom technology tools to SU educators, with the aim of improving education quality while providing ease of use.  The initiative also organizes the annual SU Education Conferences.

Additionally, the initiative is expected to collaborate and act as a connection point between FDD and the SU IT team, as well as education committees of faculties, the School of Languages, and education-related units within the Center for Individual and Academic Development.

Our Mission & Vision

The Foundation Development Directorate (FDD) is committed to being the leader in teaching excellence at SU, leveraging our extensive experience in innovative teaching approaches across disciplines gained through our core curriculum courses. By providing our students with learner-centered, active learning experiences, we are dedicated to empowering educators from all disciplines through sharing best practices and resources, exploring innovative methods, and collaborating with other teaching-related units both on campus and beyond. Our goal is to foster a culture of continuous improvement and innovation in teaching, to ensure that our students receive the highest quality education.
