We understand that making connections and building relationships with other faculty can be an important path to your teaching success. The Center for Teaching & Learning (CTL) wants to provide a mechanism to easily get that support to you in a variety of ways. We want to create opportunities for dialogue and reflection about teaching, foster a sense of faculty community, and provide tangible advice and guidance that can help promote a culture of pedagogical excellence at Marquette University.
The CTL will offer this 2024-2025 academic year one-on-one or group consultations with your fellow faculty that focus on teaching-related needs you may have. Consultations, by appointment, can be about any teaching-related questions; however, below are the most common needs of faculty.
Please contact the CTL to make an appointment. We will do our best to match you with a faculty fellow that has expertise in your area of need. You may also consider reviewing the following faculty fellow information to determine if a particular person might meet your needs.
