Faculty Strategic Initiatives

Evidence Based-Teaching Practice

A partnership with the Association of College and University Educators (ACUE) has established a cohort of faculty to take part in an academic year-long program that will enhance the instructional skills shown to best promote student motivation, learning and persistence. ACUE, in partnership with institutions of higher education nationwide, supports and credentials faculty members in the use of evidence-based teaching practices that drive student engagement, retention and learning. In addition, ACUE’s Community of Professional Practice connects college educators from across the country through member forums, podcasts and updates on the latest developments in the scholarship of teaching and learning.
