The Teaching and Learning at Lunch (T&L at Lunch) discussion series is a bi-weekly event organized by the CTL. Faculty members from all disciplines gather together over lunch to share their experiences and brainstorm effective teaching practices. It is usually initiated or co-led by faculty and the CTL. 

In case you missed any of them, here are the summaries, main takeaways, and resources for the past lunch sessions (NetID log-in required).
