Faculty researchers design, carry out and publish research on a particular
aspect of learning in a specific course. Each investigator is supported by
a coach, mentor and benefits from a student research assistant.

Central to the work of the PTLC is to create and publish scholarship
in teaching and learning that contributes both to theory and effective
teaching practice in and across disciplines. To this end, each scholar
designs and undertakes an investigation aimed at deepening
understanding of disciplinary pedagogy and related to an important
issue in learning carefully identified by the researcher.
Endorsed by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching
and Learning, the Collaborative is part of the university's
commitment to the Carnegie Academy for the Scholarship of
Teaching and Learning (CASTL). CASTL is part of the national movement
of faculty to publish in teaching and learning. CU's name
for its initiative is the President's Teaching and Learning Collaborative.
All application materials must be submitted electronically to
maryann.shea@colorado.edu no later than Thursday, October 1, 2009.
