This Case Study highlights Noah Finkelstein, Professor of Physics at CU Boulder, and the Leader Moves he made to develop and adopt a new framework for supporting and assessing teaching on his campus. Noah is one of the Principal Investigators in the Physics Education Research (PER) group and is a fellow and founding co-director of CU’s Center for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) Learning. He co-directs the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU’s) national Network of STEM Education Centers, and is helping build the STEM Discipline-Based Education Research (DBER) Alliance and coalitions advancing undergraduate education transformation. Given his robust involvement at the campus, regional and national levels, Noah was experienced and well-positioned to lead the development and implementation of the Teaching Quality Framework (TQF) at CU Boulder. The purpose of the TQF was to provide a richer evaluation of teaching that would encourage broader adoption of evidence-based teaching practices and enhance student learning at CU Boulder.
