Developing a Center for Teaching Excellence: A Case Study Using the
Integrated Readiness Matrix builds on the 2015 text, Integrating
Pedagogy and Technology: Improving Teaching and Learning in Higher
Education with a focus on teaching in higher education. Developing
a Center for Teaching Excellence is premised on our contention in
the first book that, while individual faculty members can
independently begin to use the IRM to improve their pedagogical and
technological skills in their content areas, an organizational
structure is needed to sustain ongoing improvement. In addition,
while the first book provided a primer on learning theory as it
relates to pedagogy, Developing a Center for Teaching Excellence
plumbs this topic more deeply from the perspective of the college
instructor. Further, the second book is dedicated to demonstrating
how the IRM can be institutionalized as the foundation for
providing the structure and support to faculty and how they can
help shape centers for teaching excellence by becoming more
familiar with relevant learning theories and related pedagogical
and technological approaches.

Integrating Teaching and Technology: A Matrix for Professional
Faculty Development provides college faculty and administrators
with the foundations for a new model for integrating the two most
critical dimensions of teaching and learning, pedagogy and
technology: the Integrated Readiness Matrix (IRM). Integrating
Teaching and Technology began as dialogue among the authors and
their university peers focusing on how best to integrate technology
into instruction. Achieving this goal requires all faculty to be
conversant with the theories of learning, the taxonomies and
domains of learning, and a new methodology for preparing and
developing college faculty for a career of classroom teaching. Only
by building on a foundation of educational theories can we "meet
students where they are" while designing instruction that fosters
student growth and achievement.
