What We Do
The Teaching + Learning Commons offers programs and services which create a contiguous, multi-layered network of support that jointly enhance learning and increase academic success.
The Commons:
- advances teaching excellence and student academic success
- analyzes students’ academic success and assesses student and instructional success initiatives
- increases access to education on campus and beyond
- actively promotes equity and inclusion within the organization and through our programs, services, and hiring practices
To accomplish this, The Commons:
- translates student learning research findings into instructional and educational practices, services and programs, and assesses their efficacy and impact
- analyzes student success data, identifies opportunities for improving teaching and learning excellence, pinpoints unmet needs in student academic support, and monitors student and faculty success efforts
- translates university-wide education initiatives into actions; contributes to faculty-, department-, and division-driven initiatives, including those that are funded by extramural agencies
