I'm proud of my thousands of students who have graduated and who are out there making a difference in the world.
An educator for 40 years, Lynda E. Randall, professor of secondary education, received Cal State Fullerton's 2013-14 Carol Barnes Excellence in Teaching Award.
Randall has devoted herself to her teaching, engaging both students and faculty in leading-edge and innovative instruction. She has earned grants focusing on strengthening teacher support and assessment, and her research has focused on enhancing student preparedness and engagement in online course work, particularly in the use of the technology and online instruction. A past coordinator of the Academic Technology Center, she supported colleagues in the use of innovative tools for online, blended, and classroom learning.
Randall’s students praise her for her support and dedication, and her colleagues admire her commitment, which goes beyond the classroom.
