Overview
The Center for Teaching and Learning provides a range of services designed to uplift instructors so that they can create transformative learning experiences at Berkeley. From individualized consultations to customized workshops, our goal is to deepen awareness of and empathy for the diverse learning experiences of UC Berkeley students. We aim to build relationships with all instructors and create a welcoming space for instructors to connect both with our office and with each other.
Our stance in our programming is non-evaluative. We create an open environment where instructors have space to reflect, learn, and consider what teaching approaches and strategies they may wish to implement in their courses.
We also partner with instructors and academic leaders in the course design and development process across a range of instructional modalities, from online to on-site learning spaces. We can support the management of course design and assessment projects in order to help instructors across campuses better understand where they are meeting students’ needs and promoting student growth and flourishing.
Where possible, CTL draws on available data about the instructor experience to shape how we work with instructors across campus. This data-driven approach allows us to meet instructors where they are and be responsive to campus needs.
