Teaching that Transforms
The Center for Teaching Excellence empowers those in instructional roles, whether new to teaching, new to TAMU, or those seeking fresh approaches, with the evidence-based knowledge, practical tools, and community needed to foster effective and engaging teaching and learning practices. Our programming is tailored to help faculty and staff through interactive workshops on building pedagogical skills, connecting instructors across colleges/departments, sharing inter-disciplinary experiences, and exploring new ways to foster student success.
Join us to reflect on your teaching applications, refresh your current strategies and practices, and reimagine new and innovative possibilities for your classroom. The following are our featured and upcoming highlights amongst our array of workshop series and topics.
