Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning

The Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning (FCTL) promotes the professional growth and development of faculty as teachers and as scholars of teaching and learning. It cultivates a public dialogue about teaching and learning across disciplinary lines and strives to build a professional community among teachers at Rhode Island College. The FCTL serves faculty at every stage of their professional lives in order to support a campus-wide culture committed to excellence in teaching and learning. The FCTL is by faculty, for faculty. We offer opportunities for faculty members to get together and talk about what they are doing, share strategies and stories and learn about online teaching and new technologies. In addition, we offer one-on-one support for course design, syllabus design and online course design and redesign in addition to help with class discussions and crafting assignments. Our support services are typically by appointment but walk-ins are welcome. For more information about the FCTL and our offerings visit our website at www.ric.edu/fctl.
