Teaching & Learning Group

Co-sponsored by the Office of Undergraduate Studies, and the Faculty Center, the Teaching and Learning Group is a cross-divisional group of approximately 25 faculty, staff, administrators, and graduate students (who are teaching in the classroom) committed to enriching the teaching and learning experience at CSUSM. In fall 2014, we kicked-off the group with this question, “What is it that you hope every CSUSM college student experiences as a learner on this campus?” From this discussion, we identified four key goals:

1. “Grit,” or persistence
2. Intrinsic desire
3. Agency
4. Real-world applications
