Learning Innovation Fellowship (LIF)
LIF prepares newly hired faculty for teaching at DKU through a two-month onboarding program combining online and in-person learning.
One-on-one Consultations
The consultation provides individualized support for faculty on all aspects of teaching at DKU, including course design, teaching strategies, AI in teaching and learning, educational technology, and Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL).
Small Group Instructional Feedback (SGIF)
SGIF is a confidential, faculty-initiated, CTL-facilitated process that gathers consensus-based student feedback in just 15 minutes of class time, enabling timely reflection and instructional adjustment.
Teaching and Learning at Lunch (T&L at Lunch)
T&L at Lunch is a bi-weekly faculty lunch series for sharing teaching experiences, exploring new ideas, and building a collaborative teaching community. Discussions are facilitated by the CTL and co-led by faculty.
Faculty Learning Community (FLC)
This program brings faculty together to explore teaching and learning topics, create practical resources for use in DKU courses, and build a collaborative community of teaching practice. Selected applicants will receive funding for their specific projects.
Formative Class Observation
Led by CTL, this program allows faculty to receive constructive feedback from trained peer observers using a standard observation rubric. Faculty also participate in a post-observation debrief to reflect on their teaching and identify areas for improvement.
Student as Partner (SaP) Program
SaP is a CTL managed and guided program that empowers students to collaborate with faculty to enhance teaching and learning while developing as self-directed and reflective learners.
First-Year Faculty Colloquium (FYFC)
FYFC is facilitated by Ben Van Overmeire, Associate Dean for Teaching and Learning, and the CTL to support new faculty in adapting to the DKU teaching context, building a teaching-focused cohort, and completing the DKU Certificate in Innovative Curriculum Design and Pedagogy.
Year 5/6 Faculty Colloquium
The program is facilitated by Ben Van Overmeire, Associate Dean for Teaching and Learning, and the CTL to support faculty in their fifth and sixth years at DKU in advancing teaching excellence, fostering a teaching-focused cohort, and preparing the teaching component of their tenure dossier.
Visit a Classroom (VaC)
VaC is a CTL-facilitated, non-evaluative program in which small interdisciplinary groups of faculty observe one another's classes to foster mutual learning, self-reflection, and respectful, reciprocal dialogue about teaching.
