Stern Teaching Effectiveness Program (STEP)
STEP offers opportunities for you to enhance your classroom teaching
Stern is committed to creating dynamic learning that inspire inquiry, activate curiosity, and promote rigorous, relevant, and engaged learning. In 1995, the Stern faculty voted to require that faculty participate in confidential teaching consultations and other professional development experiences. Faculty receive a reminder every three years, asking them to complete either a STEP consultation or professional development activity in the term they are teaching. Consultations support reflection, growth, and encouragement to try new teaching ideas in a confidential and constructive space.
