Welcome to the Center for Teaching & Learning at Pratt Institute
The CTL's Guiding Values are
The Center for Teaching and Learning fosters a collaborative faculty community that builds on best pedagogical practices across all disciplines and teaching modalities at Pratt: classroom and studio pedagogy, online and hybrid formats, experiential hand-on learning, and more. The Center aims to create an interdisciplinary, resilient, and reflective learning environment to address the urgency of the ‘now’, ranging from discussing difficult issues in a diverse classroom to larger social and cultural complexities of our times.
Week-by-Week Support (Week 6 - 10)
Approaching Midterms can bring up concerns of both professors and students. Here are some helpful resources to make the most of this time of self-reflection and assessment, and sail smoothly to the end of the term.
- Considerations for L/AC enrolled students, Using Starfish, and Engaging the disengaged Student
- What do your assessments tell you? Student Self-Assessment and Reflection platforms
- Compose helps establish a personal practice framed around the concepts of learned optimism, resilience and meaning-making.
