About FACET
The Faculty Colloquium on Excellence in Teaching (FACET) was established as an Indiana University
Presidential Initiative in 1989 to promote and sustain teaching excellence. Today, FACET
numbers over 300 full-time faculty members, chosen through an annual campus and statewide
peer review process. Each year approximately 20-25 candidates from across the IU campuses
and representing a wide range of academic disciplines are selected as new members. At the
annual Retreat, new members are inducted into the FACET Academy and participate in workshops
and discussions with other FACET members and leaders in higher education. They address the
challenges of collegiate teaching, and develop and share strategies to enhance pedagogy
and practice.
Once selected into FACET, members are expected to contribute their experience and skills
to FACET activities, and continue to advance Indiana University's Faculty Teaching Mission.
Throughout the year, FACET members are involved in a range of cooperative and collaborative
activities at the campus, university, and national level, promoting inquiry and engagement
in teaching and learning. Activities currently include publications on effective teaching
and the scholarship of teaching and learning; conferences and institutes exploring faculty
leadership; the impact of technology on learning and teaching; and the development and training
of associate faculty and future faculty.
