Institute for Innovative Teaching and Learning for Public Service

Coming January 2020!

NASPAA's new platform will be going live in January 2020.  As we prepare for the new platform, NASPAA is working with our members and other providers to develop new cases and simulations for use in our member programs and more broadly.  If you are interested in creating Case Studies or Simulations and want to learn more about NASPAA's new Institute for Innovative Teaching and Learning for Public Service please contact drudy@naspaa.org, or golas@naspaa.org.

An online Platform connecting students and faculty in public affairs schools around the world with simulations, case studies, data, and service-Learning opportunities—at the lowest possible cost and highest possible quality

Objectives

1. To strengthen the skills of student participants and future leaders across the globe in critical thinking and managing public governance, as well empowering them to engage in public service through simulations, cases and data-driven modes of learning.   

2. To equip faculty with tools and teaching devices such as data-driven, computer- based simulations, and cases, and matchmaking to real-world evaluation projects on the most relevant issues and topics, as part of an effort to enhance experiential learning opportunities in the classroom.

3. To train students in data analysis skills though real-world examples, specifically how to think forensically and employ nontraditional methods.

4. To provide expertise in public service values and working towards the public good to our partner organizations.
