2021 - TEACHING INNOVATION AWARD NOMINEE

​​In 2021, my students nominated me for a Teaching Innovation Award for my approach to Principles of  Microeconomics during the COVID-19 pandemic, including creating “professional” instructional videos for my classes. A sample of the comments are included below

"Dr. Lennon puts a great amount of effort and care into his lectures and everything he does for UofL."

"He puts professional levels of work into his classes and online lectures in a effort to keep students engaged in learning."

"He has done a great job this semester with YouTube videos!!"

"Puts so much effort into is lessons and videos. He is a very attentive teacher."

"He is very understanding and puts in a lot of efforts into his educational videos."

"I am retaking this class and I am so glad that I chose Dr. Lennon. This is my first class online and he couldn’t make it any easier or smoother. His videos are some of the best work I’ve ever seen."


2018 - FACULTY FAVORITE

In 2018, my students nominated me as a University of Louisville "Faculty Favorite."​ A sample of student comments are below;

"Dr. Lennon is one of the most engaging, high-level, and compelling teachers I've ever met. His Global Economic Issues class takes a fresh approach to the world's biggest problems, and I have learned so much. He marries theory and applicability beautifully. UofL is incredibly blessed to have him."

"Dr. Lennon is the most helpful, appreciative, practical and kind professor I have had at the university. He makes himself accessible to his students as much as possible and never turns you away if you need help. He encourages his students to extend their university participation beyond the classroom through beneficial reading groups and coordinates informative speakers for his students and all of the College of Business. Dr. Lennon has worked tirelessly, from my personal experience in senior capstone, this semester to give his students an enjoyable semester regardless of the hard work and effort needed for his class. He has constantly encouraged us to exceed our personal expectations by giving information on opportunities we can seek through hard work. Although there is not really a “bad” professor, Dr. Lennon stands out among the faculty I’ve experienced in the best ways and deserves to have his efforts and teaching style recognized!"

"Dr. Lennon is an exceptional professor in the ways that he is able to connect challenging economic principles to individual interests and present-day issues. I have him to thank for my renewed interests in my economics degree this last year. I will continue to encourage fellow students to take more economics courses and always recommend Dr. Lennon for a mentor and professor."
