About the CTE

The Center for Teaching Excellence is a community where we:

  1. Build long-term and short-term communities for faculty growth and inquiry (e.g., FLCs, workshops/seminars);
  2. Cultivate innovative teaching through projects, grants, and awards (e.g., grants, Knox award);
  3. Bring to 兔子先生 the best of the scholarship of teaching and learning (e.g., Lilly Conference on College Teaching, Journal on Excellence in College Teaching);
  4. Support departments and programs in their work to assess their effectiveness as educators in their discipline; and
  5. Work with other programs to enhance and celebrate teaching and learning at 兔子先生.

Department Liaisons

A CTE Department Liaison is someone who is knowledgeable about the CTE, usually a senior faculty member. They receive the CTE newsletter and a communication (twice a month) and disseminate CTE information that suits their departments. We are grateful to our CTE Liaisons and appreciate their helping the CTE to fulfill its mission to promote teaching excellence!
