Pedagogy Fellows

The Pedagogy Fellows Program supports Harvard graduate students in their roles as undergraduate teachers. Approximately thirty experienced and creative graduate student teachers per year serve as Pedagogy Fellows, who collaborate with faculty, administration, and the Bok Center’s senior staff to enhance training and support for teaching fellows within their departments and across the FAS.

Pedagogy Fellows consult with TFs, lead pedagogy seminars and workshops, and develop resources on teaching and professional development for their peers. Fellows gain the opportunity to grow in their own careers as teachers and scholars, and become more reflective about their disciplinary values and the ways in which they communicate with colleagues and students. To learn more about the full range of the Pedagogy Fellows' work, visit the Pedagogy Fellows Capstone Gallery.

Pedagogy Fellows (PFs) are primarily responsible for developing and teaching their department’s pedagogy course, and for departments with no course, to work on developing one and/or otherwise supporting TF training in their home department or program. The Bok Center’s training is grounded in principles of equitable and inclusive teaching, and it prepares PFs to serve as liaisons between the Bok Center and their department/program, providing pedagogical support and guidance on topics related to teaching and professional development for graduate students.
