Research on Teaching and Learning Summit | Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning - CETL

Friday, February 7, 2014 - 8:00am to Saturday, February 8, 2014 - 8:00pm
Formerly known as The Georgia Conference on College & University Teaching, the Research on Teaching and Learning Summit has been renamed to underscore our commitment to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, with an emphasis on research and evidence. Since 1993, thousands of educators from all 34 University System of Georgia colleges and universities, as well as many other schools in the country, and even educators from outside the US and Canada, have participated in this interdisciplinary conference. The renaming also reflects the growth of the conference, transcending state and national boundaries.

THE EVOLUTION OF A MOVEMENT: Orchestrating a Campus-Wide Learning-Centered Course Redesign Project

From Declining by Degrees to Academically Adrift, everywhere we turn the call for reform in higher education has been loud and clear. One of the most wicked problems confronting administrators seems to be a demand for faculty development which inspires faculty to alter their methods in order to optimize student success and achievement of learning outcomes, while also promoting student responsibility. Increasing evidence suggests a shift toward a learning-centered paradigm as an appropriate solution. Using our experience orchestrating a campus-wide learning-centered course redesign, we combine critical components of the leadership, course-redesign, and learning-centered literature to demonstrate how academic leaders can effect change, as well as create a receptive environment in which the seeds for transformation can take root.
