Faculty Development

Office of the Provost NAVIGATION

The Lindenwood Learning Academy's mission as it pertains to faculty is to advance development across three key areas: teaching and learning, service, and scholarship. We are primarily committed to enhancing teaching and learning through effective implementation of our RISE teaching and learning framework, while also supporting faculty growth in service and scholarly activities. Our vision is that faculty feel equipped and motivated to excel in these core areas of academic practice, ultimately enhancing student learning and success.

What We Do

We empower faculty excellence in teaching through the intentional implementation of our RISE framework—Rigor, Inclusiveness, Support, and Engagement—to foster excellence in the student academic experience.

How We Do It

  • We provide direct services and programs such as workshops and course design institutes.
  • We provide indirect support through collaboration and connection to resources such as book-based professional learning communities and teaching squares programming.
  • We serve as institutional change agents in our promotion and evaluation of the principles of Rigor, Inclusiveness, Support, and Engagement (RISE).
