CETL: Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning

The mission of the Center for Teaching & Learning (CETL) and the Office of Educational Technology (OET) is to foster faculty innovation and effectiveness through the provision of faculty development opportunities related to evidence-based pedagogical and assessment practices. By supporting reflective communities of practice and the scholarship of teaching and learning, CETL and OET facilitate not just faculty excellence, but student success as well.

Goals:

CETL and OET provide faculty development opportunities that support the College's academic initiatives and respond to faculty and student needs.
CETL and OET assess their efficacy in order to continuously improve.
OET promotes the use of instructional technology and identifies technology solutions in support of faculty teaching in face-to-face, hybrid, or fully online learning environments.

Please remember that the CETL lab is a space reserved for faculty use. While there are meetings and occasional classes scheduled in the lab (a schedule of which is always posted on the lab door), please feel free to stop by on weekdays between 9am and 5pm.

We look forward to working with you soon!
