Murphy named ag ed fellowTexas Dr. Tim Murphy, a professor in Texas A&M University's College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, was named a fellow in the American Association for Agricultural Education during the group's 2009 conference in Louisville, Ky. Murphy is on the agricultural leadership, education and communications department faculty. He has published 29 articles in 11 scholarly journals, 43 articles in national and regional research proceedings and six refereed poster presentations. His research topics include technological change and teaching methods, specifically examining technology-assisted learning. The 12-year faculty member was part of a team that developed the Doc@Distance program, a joint degree program between Texas A&M and Texas Tech University to enable students to complete a doctorate in agricultural education without being in residence at either university. This program was widely recognized as the first of its kind in the nation. "This program," Murphy said, "is changing the paradigm of graduate program delivery in agricultural education from individual and institutional to collaborative and distributed." Murphy's service to the agricultural education association includes 16 years of membership including 10 years as treasurer, during which he helped obtain designation as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.
