Description

Join a cross-disciplinary group of faculty and engage in an active, collaborative, semester-long program about enhancing teaching and learning. FLCs are teams of 8 to 10 faculty and members will engage in frequent seminars and activities that provide learning, development, and community building. Through participation in their community, faculty will build a product or plan in support of enhancing teaching and learning. FLC’s are facilitated by FCTL Faculty Fellows or staff and usually meet 5 times during the semester for a total of 10 contact hours.  Members that successfully complete goals and objectives set by their community will be eligible for a $500 mini grant to extend their learning and implement their chosen project. 

This community, led by Dr. Leslie Echols, will explore ways to increase student motivation and learning through instructional strategies that encourage self-regulation and personal responsibility among students. Each session will focus on specific approaches that can be easily integrated into existing curriculum and teaching modalities. 

Please note that this is a series of sessions and you must register through My Learning Connection to be part of this Faculty Learning Community.
