The Alliant Center for Teaching Excellence is sponsored by the Provost’s Office, and its resources are available to all core and adjunct faculty, staff, and students. Its goals are to provide an online collection of resources, a monthly newsletter, webinars and faculty groups, and access to voluntary confidential individual consultations.
The mission of the Center is to promote teaching that is inclusive, student-centered, and evidence-based. It promotes excellence and innovation in teaching in order to enhance student learning. The Center encourages ongoing professional development and faculty collaboration on best practices and works to nurture and sustain a university culture that values and rewards teaching.
Resources have been created to assist Alliant International University faculty to create engaging and effective learning experiences for students.
The Center for Teaching Excellence periodically sponsors events that focus on teaching. These include presentations by university faculty, staff, and experts from other institutions or settings. The Center organizes opportunities for interested faculty members to meet informally in small groups to discuss teaching and learning.
The Center for Teaching Excellence staff are available to provide confidential voluntary consultations to faculty members who have questions about their courses, want help addressing challenges, or would like advice about issues related to teaching.
