The CTL's work is deeply collaborative, engaging partners across the University, including UW Bothell, UW Tacoma, Undergraduate Academic Affairs, Academic Technologies, the Graduate School, UW Libraries, the Office of Institutional Assessment and Evaluation, the Faculty Senate, and academic units. A key partnership is the Teaching@UW Network, a tri-campus collaboration focused on coordinating and developing evidence-based instructional support across UW's three campuses. All CTL programs and services are driven by a commitment to enhancing student engagement and learning and supporting faculty members, post-docs, and graduate students and staff in instructional roles in the development of a teaching practice that is inclusive, learner-centered, and effective across modalities.
