A newsletter centered on teaching and learning hot topics and resources available to the Berkeley instructional community.
Our teaching newsletter serves as a forum for exploring diverse ideas and approaches to teaching in higher education and is not an academic publication. To provide a broad perspective, we include links to a variety of sources, ranging from peer-reviewed research, educational blogs, and reports on trends in higher education. Advice offered is general and may not be applicable across all disciplines. We encourage you to adapt suggestions to your context. We aim to inspire, not prescribe.
