CTL EVENTS

This institute explores design and pedagogical approaches to adapt your course to an online platform. You'll get a jump start creating your Canvas course and learn best practices for teaching online. While the institute is geared towards those teaching fully online courses, those teaching partially online, hybrid, or flipped classrooms will also benefit.

Get a head start designing or redesigning your fall courses! You'll receive expert guidance from CTL consultants and input from colleagues as you work through the backward course design process; you'll develop or redesign goals, assessments, and learning activities for your courses.

Join us for an epic journey as we navigate course design and delivery in Canvas during this two-day, gamified workshop! With the Canvas Course Template as your guide, you’ll begin building a course site that utilizes Canvas to its maximum potential, easing your teaching burdens and better supporting student learning.

Call for Proposals

Nominations are open for the 2025–26 Hesburgh Award Teaching Fellows Program, supporting faculty leaders in teaching. This year’s focus is Discipline-Based Education Research. Fellows will receive support to explore teaching and learning in their fields. 

Do you have a teaching and learning problem that technology can help you solve? We're accepting Teaching with Technology Partnership proposals that explore creative technology uses or technological solutions to existing course struggles. Selected partners receive a year of hands-on guidance from CTL as they develop, implement, and assess new projects.

Tech Connects

CTL's Lauren Barbeau hopped on the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast this spring. Together with her co-author, Claudia Cornejo Happel from Embry-Riddle, Barbeau discussed how faculty can cultivate critical teaching behaviors.
