This center was established in 2022 to support excellence in teaching and learning at CIA. In our inaugural year, we worked to create a webpage that provides resources across various topics, from course design to equity-centered pedagogy. As we continually work to build a site that is useful and informative, we welcome any feedback, questions, or suggestions of excellent resources. Please use our suggestion box or email the center's director: firstname.lastname@example.org.
We currently have six pages in addition to this home page. Some pages are only accessible for CIA faculty and staff.
1. Resources on Teaching and Learning - offers various resources (e.g., videos, books, articles, podcasts) arranged by topic.
2. Workshops, Opportunities, and Events - listing of current offerings with descriptions and registration links.
3. Educational Technology - resources, information, and opportunities related to educational technology, focused on our Interactive Media Lab (IML) and generative AI.
4. Using Canvas - provides information and resources for Canvas, our learning management system (LMS).
5. 2024 Theme: Let us ask restless and generative questions - describes the theme, purpose, and avenues for engagement.
6. Supporting Neurodivergence at CIA - provides information on the ways CIA is working to be more neuro-inclusive and resources to support this work.
