A Two-Year Planning Initiative. In 1998-1999, the Hewlett Initiative conversation deepened and broadened, both among and beyond Hewlett Fellows.
Assessments show very positive and significant results.
A cadre of faculty and graduate students, highly skilled in and committed to inquiry-guided instruction, can develop, teach, and mentor other faculty in these methods. Hewlett Fellows have developed a variety of inquiry-guided instructional activities. Because of positive feedback from Hewlett Fellows and positive assessment results the University has provided funding to continue activities for the original group of Fellows, identify a new group of Fellows, and expand pilot activities. The Hewlett Initiative has been a positive experience for the 1997-1999 Hewlett Fellows and, increasingly, for the broader campus.
