The Teaching and
Learning Initiative

New Opportunities for Faculty

The Teaching and Learning Initiative is committed to creating new forms of support for faculty who want to refine their teaching, including grants for individual proposals from faculty members who wish to undertake particularly innovative pedagogical developments and opportunities for students and staff members to work as collaborative partners in the analysis and revision of courses and teaching approaches. Click on the links below to explore new opportunities. The contact person listed can fill you in on details and answer any questions you have.

In addition, the Teaching and Learning Initiative is open to developing new opportunities that do not as yet exist, so if there is a teaching or learning opportunity that you would like to pursue but that does not currently exist, please let us know and we will work with you to design a forum within which to address it. Suggestions can be directed to the Coordinator of the Teaching and Learning Initiative, Alison Cook-Sather (acooksat@brynmawr.edu).

If you wish to learn more about any of these projects from the faculty members who have participated in them, you can contact an Experienced TLI Faculty Colleague.
