Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning
Purpose: The charge of the advisory committee is to support the Center’s mission to promote enhanced teaching effectiveness, the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, and improved student learning by participating in the creation and development of professional development opportunities for the instructional community at Missouri State University. Emphasis will also be placed on coordination of efforts to communicate and publicize faculty development opportunities; including workshops, conferences, and availability of grant funds. Our focus is to encourage collaborative communication among colleagues toward the improvement of classroom instructional practices, which will directly contribute to learner-centered student success and to increase awareness of faculty development initiatives on campus and in the community-at-large.
Membership: Appointment will be for 2 years. Members will be eligible for reappointment. At least one member from each college will be appointed to the committee. The Provost Fellows will also be appointed to the committee on a yearly basis.
