Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to announce the launch of our new Teaching Public Health (TPH) website, designed as a resource hub for instructors, practitioners, and lifelong learners dedicated to advancing public health education. It offers tools and resources to support both teachers and learners.
On the TPH site, you will find teaching and learning resources, organized as follows:
- Teaching Resources
- Instructional Strategies & Support – Evidence-based practices and innovative teaching strategies to support educators
- Inclusive Teaching – Compilation of resources to support educators on their lifelong journey of fostering diversity and inclusion
- Scholarship of Teaching & Learning – Evidence-based, systematic, and methodological inquiry into teaching practices and learning experiences
- TPH Webinars – Seminar series where educators from across the globe come together to discuss how academic public health can better prepare the next generation of public health professionals
- Learning Resources
- Online Courses – Asynchronous online courses open to learners from any sector and with varying levels of public health knowledge
- Guides & Manuals – Step by step tutorials for critical public health skills
We have a long history of excellence in teaching public health, and this website is a great showcase of all of the amazing work of our faculty and staff. Resources are being added to the site weekly, so please bookmark the site, and visit often: https://teaching-public-health.org.
There are many people to thank for this beautiful site – Cara Willis and Anna McKay in Marketing and Communications, and Emelia Nunn, our fabulous instructional designer who updated all of the faculty resources you see on the site. But the leader of the effort was and continues to be Amanda Velez. She did an amazing job working with our external developers, our internal partners, and all of the faculty and staff who contributed to the site. She went through every iteration, made recommendations for the architecture and design, and the result is a beautiful site that will elevate our visibility.
If you would like to suggest teaching/educational resources to add to the site, or offer feedback on the TPH site, please reach out to teachph@bu.edu.
Thank you,
Lisa
