Faculty Learning Communities (FLCs) are small groups of faculty and instructors who meet regularly throughout the year about a specific topic related to teaching and learning.
FLCs provide opportunities to:
engage in active, collaborative discussions across disciplines in a supportive environment
learn about and implement innovative teaching techniques
explore teaching topics in greater depth than a workshop permits
collaborate on scholarship and research related to teaching and learning
What to Expect
FLCs are different from CITL’s other programs and services, so here are a few hints for what to expect from the experience:
You will meet 4-6 times during the year
Session dates and times will be determined based on participant availability
Each FLC will be limited to 12 participants to promote active participation
FLCs are open to faculty, instructors, and teaching staff (SPS and Civil Service); unfortunately, FLCs are not open to graduate teaching assistants at this time
CITL staff are organizing and facilitating the community but will generally not be presenting
FLC meetings will be held online or in-person with a livestreaming option
