The Communities of Practice program will engage faculty in development of their teaching practice and interests.

The Communities of Practice Program

  • A multidisciplinary community will afford members a rich set of opportunities for exploration and growth
  • The examination of things we have in common as teachers will allow us to share ideas and strategies
  • Reflection on our individual and disciplinary differences will help us learn more about ourselves and reveal best practices for our disciplines
  • Exploration of how teaching effectiveness may be enhanced by examining best practices, alternative teaching techniques and models of assessment
