Teaching about Teaching, Learning about Learning
The Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (TLHE) certificate program provides essential critical thinking and self-reflection skills and a robust knowledge base for high-impact teaching in higher education. Join us and discover how to design, develop, and deliver curriculum that engages, inspires and transforms. We focus on creating learner-centered experiences integrating foundational principles of equity, inclusion and internationalization in classroom and online environments. You will progress through a range of required and elective courses, culminating in a teaching portfolio (or teaching dossier) that demonstrates your accomplishments and your learning journey. You will also have the opportunity to garner valuable experience through our teaching/action research practicum.
One of the most integral ingredients in high-caliber faculty and staff development is the ability to model outstanding teaching of the highest standard: walking the talk;. Therefore, when you engage with the content of TLHE courses and its scholarship opportunities and mentoring conversations, you will also critically reflect on the process of learning (meta-learning). This stance of reflection in practice and reflection on practice is vital to deep learning and to bridging the gap between learning and practice.
