Welcome to the Center for Teaching and Learning

The Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) at Florida Atlantic University is dedicated to ensuring the academic success of every student and to providing faculty the necessary tools and resources to excel in teaching. Our ultimate goal is the creation of a culture of engagement, where students become fully engaged in the learning process, both with their instructors and with their peers; and where faculty from diverse disciplines can engage one another in the pedagogy of teaching, with the ultimate goal of enhancing student learning.

Our Centers


Math Learning Center (MLC)

The Math Learning Center (MLC), was created to help FAU students develop their math problem-solving skills so they have the confidence and ability to solve math problems on their own. The MLC offers FREE drop in group tutoring online and In Person. Tutoring is available for most undergraduate mathematics courses.

The office of undergraduate research and inquiry (OURI)

 

The Office of Undergraduate Research and Inquiry (OURI) serves as a centralized support office of faculty and students who are engaged in undergraduate research and inquiry across all colleges and campuses. We offer and support university wide programs such as undergraduate research grants, annual undergraduate research symposia, undergraduate research journals, prestigious fellowships and scholarships, and the Undergraduate Research Certificate, to name a few.

Academic Success Initiatives (ASI)

Our assessment work extends through collaborations across the university to use student outcome and other data to inform practice and recommend improvements.
