Middle Georgia State University faculty member Dr. Scott Hinze has been chosen to be a 2024 Governor’s Teaching Fellow. An associate professor of psychology, Hinze was among the faculty chosen for the highly competitive program from institutions across the state.
Established in 1995 by Zell Miller, then governor of Georgia, the Governor's Teaching Fellows program is designed to provide Georgia's higher education faculty with expanded opportunities for developing important teaching skills. Miller envisioned that this program would address faculty members' pressing need to use emerging technologies and instructional tools that are becoming increasingly important for learning in today's society.
