Teaching & Learning Holds Session on Scholars@Duke

Lamont Cannon leading Scholars class

As part of the Teaching and Learning Luncheon, we were joined by Julia Trimmer and Lamont Cannon from Duke’s Office of the Provost, Finance and Administration to learn about Scholars@Duke which features the research, scholarship and activities of Duke faculty members and academic staff. As a research discovery system, Scholars@Duke displays web profiles that summarize a person's roles at Duke and displays their connections with colleagues. Visitors can search for faculty members by name, keyword or subject area or anything on their profile.  As part of their presentation, students workshopped their own profiles and asked questions about ways to leverage them to connect with other scholars and present themselves for the job market.  Food was provided for the event by Soom Soom.
