While good teaching in no way justifies a lack of student effort to learnthe material, good teaching does inspire students to want to know more about a topic. Aseries of strategic questions were to be addressed when putting these seminars togetherwhich in turn provided the framework for implementation: Why should someone come to Baylor University to study engineering or computer science (instead of other options for the same degree)? What is the importance of teaching in the current Baylor culture (i.e. what is considered the teaching strength of Baylor University)? What will be the role of academic teaching in the future?
