Do you have a question about teaching best practices or student learning? Are you interested in designing or re-designing a course? Aligning assessments with course outcomes? Developing measurable learning outcomes? Or strategies to actively engage students? If so, you can request a consultation with a member of the Center for Innovative and Transformative Instruction (CITI).
During the consultation, we will discuss in greater detail what you want to achieve and help you identify the right resources to foster transformative learning experiences in your course.
