Improving Teaching in Higher Education

August 8 , 2005

The Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning promotes the development of a national faculty in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) committed to implementing and advancing effective teaching practices for diverse student audiences as part of their professional careers. CIRTL represents a collaboration of faculty at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Michigan State University, and the Pennsylvania State University.

The CIRTL learning community provides a physical and intellectual home where graduates-through-faculty can develop their teaching practice; offers a welcoming environment for those beginning to explore change in their approach to teaching and learning; and furnishes mentoring and leadership opportunities. Learning community team members experience a supportive community of diverse colleagues as they develop a deeper appreciation for how they can engage in meaningful inquiry about their teaching and their students' learning.

For more information on CIRTL learning communities, visit the Delta Teaching and Learning Community.  http://www.delta.wisc.edu/
