Abstract

[The Teaching and Learning Center (TLC) offers a variety of enrichment programs that bring people together to learn from experts and from one another. This menu of opportunities provides faculty, postdoctoral fellows (postdocs), and graduate students with a venue to learn about effective teaching practices, and fosters dialogue about teaching and learning. Our enrichment programs generally take one of two forms: (1) visits from prominent Visiting Teacher/Scholars who come to share their expertise and engage in conversations, presentations, and brainstorming sessions; and (2) seminars and workshops that are organized by the TLC with university personnel serving as presenters and/or facilitators. In this chapter, we will describe both types of enrichment programs and provide examples of each.]
