Two dozen faculty and staff of UW-Milwaukee were honored for their distinguished service to the university at the 2024 Employee Excellence Awards ceremony.<\/a> Chancellor Mark Mone and other speakers praised the winners during a ceremony Wednesday in the ballroom of the UWM Student Union.<\/p>\n

Christine Carlson was awarded the Academic Staff Outstanding Teaching Award.<\/p>\n

Christine Carlson has been a member of the UWM Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry since 2013, focusing on the instruction of general chemistry.<\/p>\n

In addition to teaching three large lectures each semester, Carlson collaborates with other instructors in the department and student advisors to improve student retention and the student experience when taking chemistry courses at UWM. She goes out of her way to learn how students learn best.<\/p>\n

Given that the students in the general chemistry sequence spend as much time with graduate teaching assistants as they do with their instructor, Carlson is invested in the instruction of her teaching assistants in new and effective ways to teach, with the ultimate goal to not only ensure that the topics are taught correctly but to also ensure consistency for the students.<\/p>\n

Carlson also actively works with the university in recruiting activities. In the last year, she served as a member of the New Directions Freshman Scholarship committee, the Biological Sciences and Chemistry\/Biochemistry Preview Day and volunteered for the Natural Sciences Showcase (Fall Welcome event).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
