We engage in five broad types of activities:

A Conversation About Teaching and Learning

We encourage, facilitate, and contribute to a faculty conversation about how university students learn, how we can best foster that learning, and how we and our students can best understand its nature and progress.

Conversation places (among others)

Feedback Services

Academy offers services to help individual faculty members collect thorough and systematic feedback on their teaching.

Research-Based Initiatives

We support faculty members as they treat the learning of their students as an object of scholarly inquiry and subsequently contribute to the scholarship of learning and teaching.

Support for the Teaching Infrastructure

We support schools, departments, and the University in designing and maintaining the teaching infrastructures, including design of learning spaces, design and use of learning technologies, and design of ways to evaluate teaching.

Service-learning is a form of experiential education which links academic study to real world experiences in community settings. Learn More...
