Welcome to the Perlman Center for Learning and Teaching

The Perlman Center for Learning and Teaching (the LTC) coordinates programs for new and experienced faculty, circulates new information about teaching theories and strategies, and helps to identify problems and suggest solutions for classroom practice.

Located in Willis Hall 207, the LTC is home to a small library and reading room, open throughout the day while classes are in session. Drop by to read, research or talk. But also think of the LTC as a metaphor for the creation of the quiet space and the free moments it takes to examine the work we do and why.


PDFs of posters listing LTC events from past terms as well as the current term are now available here.

  • Faculty workshops

    The LTC tries to keep a log of workshops offered on campus. However, it does not organize all of these. The New Faculty Winter Teaching Workshop is offered by the Perlman Center for Learning and Teaching (LTC) each year. The LTC also co-sponsors others. Look at the chart to see who to contact in the case of each workshop.
