Dr. Jeff King is the Director of TCU's Koehler Center for Teaching Excellence, coming to TCU from the position of Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning at Kaplan University. Jeff's focus throughout his faculty development career has been on the shift from the teaching to the learning paradigm and the integral role learning outcomes play as a part of that process. He is currently the faculty development consultant working with two Arkansas colleges on a National Science Foundation grant targeting manufacturing and technology postsecondary education. Prior to that, Jeff has been faculty development consultant on a Title III, FIPSE, and another NSF grant. Along the way he has also served as Co-Director of a college Institutional Effectiveness Office while it prepared itself for SACS accreditation and the initial site visit (which resulted in accreditation). Regional accreditors' shift to a strong focus on learning outcomes means Jeff's background and experience mesh well with this workshop's focus on success with college faculty and with college centers of teaching effectiveness.
