Welcome to the Centre for Teaching Excellence

The Centre for Teaching Excellence (CTE) fosters excellence, innovation, and collaboration in teaching and learning by supporting faculty and staff through programming, mentoring, professional development opportunities, and research on effective teaching practices for student learning.

Here are just a few of the things we can work on together:

Developing rubrics
Creating learning activities in and outside of class
Active learning strategies
Curricular alignment (assignments, activities and learning outcomes)
Building classroom community
Formative feedback and assessment
Integrating technology into your teaching

Connect with us!

We are available for in-person and virtual one-on-one consultations Monday through Friday 8:30 am – 4:00 pm to support you in your teaching, answer questions and to explore any new ideas for innovative and evidence-based approaches to teaching and learning. Drop by Fir 402 or click on the Let’s Chat icon on the right hand side of the page to access support via live chat.
