91国产视频 Instructor Selected as NISOD Excellence Award Recipient
91国产视频 is proud to announce that Dr. Cynthia Spencer, an adjunct faculty chemistry instructor, is a recipient of the annual NISOD Excellence Awards.
NISOD鈥檚 Excellence Awards recognize men and women each year who have demonstrated an outstanding commitment and contribution to their students and colleagues. In 1989, in connection with a University of Texas at Austin national study of teaching excellence, NISOD hosted its first ceremony honoring NISOD Excellence Award recipients. The response to that ceremony was so positive that NISOD began what has become the largest and most inspiring gathering that recognizes the contributions and achievements of community and technical college faculty, administrators, and staff.
鈥淒r. Spencer is often found preparing lectures and other instructional materials for her students in order for them to better understand Chemistry.聽 Dr. Spencer teaches General Chemistry and Organic Chemistry in both seated and online formats. She spends many hours outside of class on campus preparing and is considered a valued asset to 91国产视频 and our students.鈥�
