What is an educational developer?

Educational Developers are professionals who support and enhance teaching and learning practices within educational institutions, such as universities and colleges. They work with faculty, staff, and sometimes students to improve curriculum design, teaching strategies, and assessment methods. Their goal is to foster effective learning environments, often through workshops, consultations, and the implementation of new educational technologies. Educational Developers may also be involved in evaluating teaching effectiveness and promoting inclusive and evidence-based instructional practices.
