UNLV Foundation Distinguished Teach Award

0

 

Dear Dr. Krishen,

It gives me great pleasure to tell you that you have been selected to receive a UNLV Foundation Distinguished Teaching Award. A Committee of your peers examined the portfolio that you submitted and recommended you for the award.

The Number 1 goal in UNLV’s strategic plan is a commitment to student learning, and the quality of your portfolio shows your personal commitment to that goal. Excellence in teaching does not come easily. I know it represents a great deal of work on your part and that it is sometimes difficult to balance the needs of students with the other demands the University makes on your time and energies.

Disseminating examples of teaching excellence is as important as recognizing it through teaching awards. May we have your permission to share some of your teaching materials with the UNLV teaching community by posting them on the Instructional Development Research website? Specifically, we would like to post your article on contagious motivation.

With this Distinguished Teaching Award, the University is able to echo the praise of the many students who have been fortunate enough to take your classes and to say thank you for a job well done. I wish you well as you continue your good work with our students.

The award carries a $5,000 stipend (appropriate taxes will be deducted) which you will receive when you are honored at the 2015 Academic Achievement Gala on Tuesday, April 28, 2015 in the Student Union Ballroom. You will receive more information about this later.

Sincerely,

Gregory S. Brown
Vice Provost for Faculty, Policy and Research

Shanghai, China Summer Session II 2017

0

I have been accepted to teach in Shanghai, China during the Summer Session of 2017.

I will be teaching Internet Marketing.

Students will learn how the Internet and Social Media have become a necessity in modern business, and
discover how they can assist in marketing. The Internet is an extremely useful tool for marketing planning,
and has become a necessary and integral part of a firm’s marketing mix. The primary objective of the
course is to focus on how the Internet can serve as an invaluable resource for the marketer. You will learn
about the Internet from its beginnings until present day and the advantages and disadvantages of
marketing on-line as well as complete a hands-on project.

If you have any revisions or additions you wish to make to these course details before they go to the
printer, please let me know. Also, let me know if we need to list a prerequisite for this course. We rely on
you to ensure that what you teach abroad will meet degree/general education requirements at your home
campus in order to make sure your own students will benefit from joining you. Note that all our courses
are approved and articulated at the University of Nevada, Reno, and we may need to make changes to the course departmental designation and/or course level based on the Nevada catalog as we pursue articulation. I will inform you if this becomes necessary.
