Rebecca Stein

Rebecca Stein is the Co-Executive Director of the Center for Excellence in Teaching, Learning and Innovation (CETLI). She co leads the Digital Innovation Team with the Faculty Director setting strategic initiatives for online learning at Penn, supervising the creation of digital learning environments and leading the charge to provide online students the services they need to succeed.

Before joining CETLI, Rebecca taught large classes in the economics department and was an early adopter in teaching online. As an award-winning innovator in the classroom, she found it natural to embrace teaching online, first through Coursera and then in for-credit courses at Penn. She is inspired by the ability to reach students across continents and impact their lives and careers from afar. Rebecca hopes many Penn faculty will be drawn to this opportunity to extend our impact through teaching and inclusion of new student populations.
