Council for Excellence in Teaching and Learning
The mission of the Council for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETAL) is to support and foster the pedagogical development of IWU Faculty. CETAL advises the Dean of Curricular & Faculty Development on matters related to teaching and learning and is key in coordinating pedagogical initiatives with other bodies, such as Curriculum Council (CC), the Faculty Development Committee (FDC), the Writing Program, the Assessment Committee, and the Council on University Programs and Policies (CUPP). More details on CETAL's governance and procedures can be found in the most up-to-date version of IWU's Faculty Handbook.
Check out the CETAL Canvas page for resources from the Council or from recent CETAL events. Please email cetal@iwu.edu with questions, comments, or concerns.
