Program Goals
The goal of the Whitman College Center for Teaching and Learning is to promote a campus-wide environment that values, respects, and encourages excellent teaching. Our programs are designed to:
Explore how the diversity of student interests, goals, backgrounds and learning styles impacts the classroom at Whitman.
Offer faculty opportunities to reflect upon and critique their pedagogy in light of advances in theories of teaching and learning, as well as advances in classroom/instructional technology.
Provide a forum for faculty to continually learn from each other about the myriad ways of offering an excellent education to students.
Promote sound pedagogical practices of the past, while developing and disseminating new pedagogical resources for the future.
