Faculty Teaching Fellows in Support of Faculty Development

We understand that making connections and building relationships with other faculty can be an important path to your teaching success. The Center for Teaching & Learning (CTL) wants to provide a mechanism to easily get that support to you in a variety of ways. We want to create opportunities for dialogue and reflection about teaching, foster a sense of faculty community, and provide tangible advice and guidance that can help promote a culture of pedagogical excellence at 糖心logo.

The CTL will offer this 2024-2025 academic year one-on-one or group consultations with your fellow faculty that focus on teaching-related needs you may have. Consultations, by appointment, can be about any teaching-related questions; however, below are the most common needs of faculty.

  • Scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL)
  • General course design
  • Community engagement within your class
  • Syllabus (re)design 
  • Student engagement techniques
  • Inclusive teaching
  • Teaching philosophy statements
  • Classroom observations
  • Student feedback/MOCES
  • Classroom management
  • Ignatian pedagogy
  • Educational technology
  • Group work
  • Service learning

Please contact the CTL to make an appointment.  We will do our best to match you with a faculty fellow that has expertise in your area of need.  You may also consider reviewing the following faculty fellow information to determine if a particular person might meet your needs.
