The TLC offers a wide range of support to UIC instructors. The TLC works with faculty to explore how various pedagogical strategies, instructional media, and/or other teaching tools can help meet individual instructional goals. The TLC collaborates with instructors to develop custom assessment strategies to help measure and report instructional outcomes and processes. Whether it be assessing how incorporating multimedia into class presentations influences student learning or discussing how adopting a problem-based learning approach can affect course dynamics, the TLC strives to ensure that instructional media helps faculty meet their instructional goals.
