The Center for Teaching and Learning and the Office of Academic Effectiveness are thrilled to announce the 2023 Georgia Tech CIOS Award winners.
The Student Recognition of Excellence in Teaching: Annual CIOS Award is open to full-time Georgia Tech employees who teach credit courses and who administer the Course Instructor Opinion Survey (CIOS). Each year, 40 to 50 winners are selected and announced each January for courses taught during the previous calendar year. The generous gifts in the Class of 1940 and Jack and Frances Mundy endowments provide funding for a $1000 stipend awarded to winners.
The purpose of this award is to recognize instructors with exceptional response rates and scores on CIOS. Qualifiers for the award must have at least an 85% student response rate. The CIOS score used to determine winners of the award is based on the sum of three scale items: (#16) instructor’s respect and concern for students; (#17) instructor’s level of enthusiasm about teaching the course; and (#18) instructor’s ability to stimulate interest in the subject matter. Ties are broken by response rate.
The proportion of small (up to 39 students) and large (at least 40 students) classes that will qualify for awards are based on the proportion of those classes in the Georgia Tech catalog for the past three years.
Nominations are not accepted for these awards, and employees who are visiting faculty, postdoctoral scholars, graduate students, upper-level administrators (assistant deans, associate deans, deans, provost) are not eligible for awards. While part-time faculty were not eligible for the 2023 CIOS Awards, they are eligible for the 2024 CIOS Awards; these winners will be announced in January 2025.
