Ann LaMotte receives LCU promotion

[April 23, 2014]  Ann LaMotte, online instructional designer at Lincoln Christian University, has been promoted to an associate faculty member, effective June 1.

LaMotte became an employee of LCU in 1980 and was appointed to faculty status in 2001. She has been instrumental in the development and expansion of online instruction and training at LCU by creating and developing online courses, and by training LCU faculty, staff and other personnel in services and use of online platforms.

Her promotion to the rank of associate professor was the result of a recommendation process initiated by a committee of her peers. The provost and dean also review requests for faculty promotion and, upon endorsement, send the committee recommendation on to the college president for final approval.

LaMotte is "intelligently prepared, infinitely patient and incredibly adept at making hard things easy," a colleague noted. "She has equipped me technologically and pedagogically to be a more effective teacher in the 21st century!"

LaMotte received her Master in Online Teacher Certificate (2000) and Master of Arts with Individual Option-Media Management and Services (2008) from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
