The University of Texas at Tyler’s Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CTEL) is dedicated to supporting the best practices in teaching and learning throughout the university.
The CTEL strives to enhance lifelong learning and provide high quality professional development to facilitate the development of new skills and discipline knowledge for faculty and, in turn, enhance the academic success of UT Tyler’s students. One way the CTEL works to achieve these goals is by providing faculty with professional learning communities. Professional Learning Communities (PLC) allow faculty and professional staff to come together to grapple with issues and concerns in targeted areas focused on student success. Faculty not only participate in these communities but design them as well. The CTEL is currently hosting six PLCs: 1) Academic Innovation, 2) Global Awareness & Diversity, 3) Service Learning, 4) Student Research, 5) Work-Life Balance, and 6) The Study of Student Writing.
