Connection & Community
We foster a psychologically safe space for faculty exchange to develop our teaching practice (regardless of rank, modality, location, race, or creed). This community recognizes the unique talents of each instructor and the lessons we can learn from one another - we embrace a culture of continuous learning, together.
Curiosity & Continuous Learning
When faculty are guided by genuine curiosity (as learners ourselves), we can collaboratively learn and co-create with our students and colleagues; we can enact learner-centered teaching; and remain curious by using intentional inquiry to guide experimentation that helps our teaching to continuously evolve.
Innovation & Inquiry
Continuous learning and risk-taking lay a foundation for innovation, while an inquiry mindset into classroom practice enables the creation of new knowledge about teaching and learning. This includes sharing lessons learned with the larger academic community through the dissemination of knowledge within and outside of the University.
