Instructor Ann Boldt has been named Pine Technical College’s Outstanding Educator based on nominations by students, faculty peers, and staff members. Boldt is one of 37 across the state to have earned the title – the others having earned the nomination from their respective MnsCU institutions. Boldt, with other MnSCU nominees, will be recognized April 18 in a statewide ceremony at the Hilton Garden Inn in St. Paul.
“These faculty members demonstrate what it takes to create an extraordinary education for our students,” said Scott Thiss, MnSCU chair of the Board of Trustees. “They are among our finest faculty and staff who provide the best education available in Minnesota.”
This is the sixth year of the awards, and the April 18 event will reveal the state’s top winners who will take away gold, engraved medallions and the prestigious title Educator of the Year – MnSCU’s highest academic honor. Evaluation criteria include teaching strategies and materials; content expertise; service to students, the profession, institution and the system; and assessment of student learning and performance.
At PTC, Boldt teaches ENGL 100, Writing Foundations I; ENGL 220, Writing Foundations II; ENGL 1277, Technical Communications, READ 100, Reading Strategies I; and, READ 210, Reading Strategies II.
“I am so honored to be nominated," Boldt says. “To share the title of Outstanding Educator and to look forward to sharing the stage on April 18 with such remarkable people from all corners of the state is a little overwhelming. I feel so complimented that our students and my peers at PTC have selected me for this,” Boldt says.
