“Dare to Think!” Teaching and Learning Community (TLC)

Goal 4 of the QEP is to enhance faculty use of critical thinking pedagogy through the design of instructional approaches and assessments. In addition to professional development workshops and other training designed to facilitate understanding and use of critical thinking pedagogy, a TLC was established that will allow faculty a forum to share ideas and offer support to each other. The Teaching and Learning Community was developed with the first pilot critical thinking course and is open to all interested faculty each semester.
