As we celebrate the completion of a successful academic year, it's a great time to slow down and reflect on ways to enhance our teaching skills. The A-State Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) has prepared a program of summer sessions and workshops designed to address the needs that many have expressed throughout the year and on our recent faculty needs survey. 

During June, this year's Summer Institute for Faculty Development highlights the themes of teaching and technology, academic integrity, DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion), and skills for preparing videos to include in courses. Particularly noteworthy is a virtual information session about the prestigious ACUE higher education teaching credential for faculty. In July, we will offer orientation sessions and open practice and use of our new lightboard and recording studio! This new addition to the CETL will make it easy for you to record a brief lecture or instructional video while writing on a board that students can see in your video. CETL staff will show you simple ways to upload your videos to your courses.
