In her new position, Siegelman will manage the source course system for HU courses and increase the use of engaging instructional elements in the University’s hybrid and online courses. She will work closely with course faculty and program leads as a design consultant, identifying opportunities for improvement, and integrating innovative and engaging instructional activities into courses to enhance student learning.
Siegelman joins HU from Temple University, where she spent the last five years as a Lead Digital Media Specialist and Senior Educational Technology Specialist at Temple’s Center for the Advancement of Teaching, with previous positions at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and Penn State University.
