Several students who took The Aging Process taught
by Dr. Mauk, nominated her for this teaching award; their
nomination sheets included the following comments:
"Dr. Mauk's innovative and interactive teaching strategies
have been some of my most memorable learning experiences here
at VU. As teacher of The Aging Process, she set up a multi-station
lab to help us experience conditions such as glaucoma, macular
degeneration, and other sensory deficits. We tried to carry
out activities such as eating, walking, putting on a button-up
shirt with these deficits. These stations helped us experience
challenges that our patients live with every day."
"Professor Mauk is very knowledgeable about geriatric
health and is very enthusiastic about working with the elderly.
Her books and research have contributed greatly to advances
in gerontology for students, health care professionals and
the patients."
"Dr. Mauk is an exceptional professor. Not only does
she have outstanding credentials and service in the field
of gerontology, she is very intelligent and well-rounded,
and always has time to work with her students and keep them
performing at their best."
