Did you know that UMPI has a Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) that gives faculty tools, resources and training to make their courses even more successful?\u00a0 We work with faculty who teach in a wide range of modalities: in person, online, through video conference and everything in between.\u00a0 CTL is comprised of 2012 Maine Teacher of the Year Alana Margeson, Ed.D., and Instructional Design Specialist Heather Nunez-Olmstead, M.S.Ed.\u00a0 Together, we bring a diverse skill set and intimate knowledge of current best practices in teaching and learning theory to the faculty and staff at UMPI.<\/p>\n
CTL is physically located in Preble Hall, in the 238 suite, but we deliver training, support and services in a variety of ways.\u00a0 We can schedule one-on-one in-person meetings or meet over web conferencing.\u00a0 We offer a variety of live workshops and drop-in events over the course of the semester, as well as work to connect faculty with learning opportunities from teaching authorities from the University of Maine sister campuses and other education experts from around the country!\u00a0 We also have access to a rich toolbox of educational technology training that we can share to enrich your teaching experience.<\/p>\n
Services that are popular with faculty include revision of course outcomes and rubric creation, Blackboard course design, using video and multimedia in courses, creating accessible content, student engagement strategies, midcourse evaluation and more!\u00a0 We are here to help UMPI faculty achieve UMPI\u2019s Academic Commitments throughout every step of the course planning, design and delivery process!<\/p>\n
We try to make it easy to get in touch with us.\u00a0 You can pop into the Center for Teaching and Learning location (on the second floor of Preble Hall) on Monday-Fridays to look through our semester offerings and lending library,\u00a0 or by one-on-one appointment.
