PRACTICES
Advancing Teaching Excellence Through Collaborative Learning and Collegial Growth
Sustaining academic excellence arises from remarkable faculty practicing transformative teaching strategies. Motlow’s strategy for excellence is grounded in the development of its Academic Resource Center (ARC) launched under the visionary leadership of Director Ramona Shelton.
Ramona Shelton: Leading the ARC for Faculty Excellence
Established to advance teaching and learning excellence, the ARC has emerged as a cornerstone of Motlow’s mission to foster student success through faculty empowerment. Professor Shelton, a highly respected and experienced academic leader in education innovation, is shaping the ARC into a dynamic hub where faculty collaborate, learn, and grow. Over the past year, her leadership has been instrumental in shaping initiatives supporting faculty development and deepening Motlow’s position as a leader in High-Impact Practices (HIPs).
Faculty Supporting Faculty
At the heart of the ARC’s efforts this year was the introduction of a Collegial Peer Growth model. Recognizing the value of peer expertise and interdisciplinary mentorship, Professor Shelton facilitated a series of collaborative workshops and roundtable discussions where faculty shared strategies, insights, and successes. These initiatives foster a
culture of mutual respect and camaraderie, as subject matter experts learn from each another to enrich instructional practices. ARC Coordinators, who are also full-time faculty members, work with their fellow faculty to enhance the faculty environment of support; this includes support for adjunct faculty and full-time faculty from the start, through the tenure and promotion processes, and beyond.
Professional Development and High-Impact Practices
The ARC also spearheaded a robust professional development program tailored to advancing High-Impact Practices. These evidencebased teaching strategies, known for boosting student engagement and retention, were the focus of multidisciplinary training sessions, webinars, and one-on-one consultations. Faculty explored, cultivated, and launched innovative approaches such as learning communities, service learning, and collaborative projects to create transformative classroom experiences.
Professor Shelton’s leadership continues to spotlight Motlow faculty successes that serve as benchmarks for teaching excellence and student success. This year, the work of the ARC supported other parallel efforts such as enabling several Motlow faculty members to present at regional and
national conferences, sharing their classroom success with other peers. Faculty work with Motlow HIP Coordinators to implement and spotlight practices such as Undergraduate Research, Global Cultural Awareness, Technology Enhanced Learning, and Service Learning to not only help students be more successful and engaged in the classroom but also to help them build skills desired by employers.
New Faculty Academy
Another recent milestone achievement was the launch of the New Faculty Academy, designed to onboard and support new educators at Motlow. This comprehensive program introduced incoming faculty to Motlow’s teaching culture, provided mentorship opportunities, and offered foundational training in HIPs. The academy ensures that new faculty are not only prepared to succeed but also inspired to innovate.
Under Director Shelton’s leadership, the ARC has become more than a resource center— it is a transformative force driving faculty excellence. As Motlow continues to prioritize teaching and learning, the ARC’s achievements reflect the college’s unwavering dedication to faculty development and student success.
WE ARE ONE TEAM WORKING TOWARD ONE GRAND VISION.
Where it all Together. Comes
Motlow’s mission centers on two central purposes: student success and workforce development. This mission has historically been carried out through two distinct teaching strategies: Academic Affairs, serving degree-seeking students, and Workforce Development, providing technical certifications to meet industry needs.
Unifying Strategic Collaboration
Through programs like EMS, Academic Affairs and Workforce Development are becoming more synergistic. By blending strategies, EMS is serving both students and employers more effectively. The emerging complementary efforts produce a more unified approach, preparing more students for successful careers and better meeting market demands for lifelong learning.
Bridging Academics and Workforce to Expand Access and Opportunity
Motlow is working to integrate industry-recognized certifications into degree programs and offer short-term training options for existing EMS workers. These efforts satisfy both degree attainment and career advancement requirements so that for-credit and non-credit students can find what works for their success.
Under the leadership of Houston Austin, Director of EMS, EMS has risen to best exemplify this credit-non-credit synergy, creating a paradigm Motlow aims to expand across other programs. EMS learners can pursue EMT and AEMT training in both for-credit and non-credit pathways. This dual-track structure ensures greater accessibility for all learners, whether starting fresh, upskilling, or making a midcareer shift.
Austin’s efforts have expanded EMS training to four campuses and deeper into the community through high school dual enrollment partnerships. Recently, the program also secured the Rural College Practitioner Data and Design Academy grant to enhance mobile resources needed to take EMS education into remote communities and open doors to rural learners to pursue healthcare careers.
Results Speak Volumes
Because of Austin’s progressive vision for the program, EMS has expanded its for-credit enrollment, set workforce training contact hour records, achieved a 97% graduate placement rate, and earned state and national SkillsUSA recognition. His vision even extends beyond EMS by collaborating to launch a
paramedic-to-RN pathway to build EMS pathways into new career opportunities. This excellent work has awarded Motlow EMS a finalist position for the prestigious Bellwether Award in the category of Workforce Innovation.
Transformative Leadership
Houston Austin exemplifies the innovative education of all leaders at Motlow who are transforming higher education to reach and teach more students in need of the transformational impact of a college education. Thanks to Austin, Motlow’s EMS program has become one of Tennessee’s largest and most respected, excelling in both degree-seeking education and workforce training. Austin embodies the college’s mission to meet learners wherever they are, offering education that elevates their professional opportunities, supports local communities, and strengthens the region’s economy.

The program has been a resounding success, receiving widespread enthusiasm from both youth and adults.
