Discipline/Program Workshops: Each year the MnSCU Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) solicits for system-wide, discipline-based faculty development workshops. These workshops are one-day events to which all MnSCU faculty in the discipline or program area are invited to participate. Workshops can also be planned to be interdisciplinary in that faculty from more than one discipline/program meet to discuss common issues. The goal of these workshops is to provide a time and a place for faculty to engage in discipline-specific or interdisciplinary conversations abut teaching and learning.
Faculty Small Grants in Teaching and Learning: Faculty Small Grant Projects under MnSCU CTL provide resources and structure for faculty to develop projects to improve teaching, curriculum, and student support. All eligible faculty (see Guidelines), including instructors, counselors, librarians, and media and learning center coordinators, may propose projects under this program. Faculty are encouraged to develop creative projects for exploring and experimenting with new teaching methods, innovative curriculum development, and improved strategies for student support services.
