Led by faculty and CTL, Faculty Learning Community (FLC) is a group of faculty who meet regularly to work together in an active and collaborative program on a pedagogical or curricular topic of interest.
The overall goal is to reinforce the culture of the faculty learning community, where faculty are expected to explore ways of fostering student significant learning (Fink, 2003), engage with the pedagogical literature, and apply research-based teaching to DKU courses.
2021 Program: Active Learning
In 2021-2022, the first iteration of the FLC program with the theme of Active Teaching involved a group of 9 faculty members across divisions & programs. This program has fulfilled its goal to explore active learning and inclusive techniques in classrooms, labs, or Friday field trips.
