Faculty Learning Community (FLC) Sign-Up Form

The Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence (CTLE) firmly believes that fostering a sense of community enhances the learning experience.

Faculty Learning Communities (FLCs) will provide a platform for you to engage in deep-dive discussions, collaboration with colleagues, and exchange ideas related to higher education.

This year's inaugural topic for FLCs is Artificial Intelligence in Higher Education launching in September.

Faculty Learning Community

A Faculty Learning Community (FLC) is not a Teaching and Learning Conversation group (TLC) or a Faculty Book Club. It is a structured learning community of 6-8 people who commit to meet regularly (every 3 weeks is recommended) throughout the academic year, to share teaching strategies, research, and scholarly opportunities. FLCs may be interdisciplinary or more specifically focused on an academic discipline.

Each group’s specific planned outcomes and structure is determined by the members. An FLC is a structured learning community of faculty members with five goals:

Explore a significant issue or complex problem in higher education.
Engage in research and practice to address the chosen issue.
Create a supportive community of inquiry.
Improve teaching and learning.
Produce scholarly works such as publications, conference presentations, grants, or curricular changes based on scholarship.

I understand the expectations and commitments when participating in a Faculty Learning Community as outlined above, and I look forward to the opportunity.*
