We are excited to announce that Joshua Kim has joined the DCAL team as the first director of digital learning initiatives.   In this role, which jointly reports to the director of DCAL and the vice provost, Josh will build on DCAL’s collaborative work with faculty to foster and support innovations in teaching and learning.   

This new position in DCAL responds to one of the main faculty recommendations from the College’s Strategic Planning process.  The position is designed to bolster DCAL’s role as the central collaborative hub for faculty efforts to improve student learning. Josh will build on DCAL’s strong collaboration with the Library and Academic Computing to create new opportunities to expand faculty use of methods and technologies to meet their teaching and learning objectives. As part of this new role, Josh will also be working to share Dartmouth faculty innovations in technology enabled teaching and learning across the institution, as well as with the wider educational technology community (in which Josh is a frequent speaker and author).

This appointment reflects President Hanlon’s commitment that the College make the strategic investments necessary to maintain the Dartmouth’s position as one of the nation’s highest ranked institutions for teaching and learning, with DCAL playing a central role in meeting this commitment.

Josh comes to DCAL having served for a number of years on DCAL’s Executive Team, and participated in numerous DCAL programs and community events.   His background is in teaching (both on-ground and online), having started his career on the faculty of West Virginia University in the sociology department after receiving his doctorate from Brown University.  At Dartmouth, Josh helped found the Master of Health Care Delivery Science Program, the College’s first (and so far only) blended (online and residential) graduate degree program.
