CEEI


Established in 2021, the Center for Educational Excellence and Innovation seeks to

  • Spotlight exemplary existing faculty excellence in teaching, service, scholarship, and academic life at UVA Wise,
  • Promote research-driven national best practices and innovative new resources and approaches that improve teaching and learning,
  • Nurture collaborative cross-disciplinary communities for deep reflection, scholarly exchange, and connection around learning, teaching, and professional growth.

CEEI offers considerable teaching handouts and all the resources that are provided in campus workshops or Faculty Learning Communities related to scholarship, tenure and promotion, and professional development on their website. Check out the latest handouts, videos, and other materials compiled to help you with any teaching, service, or scholarship question you may face.

CEEI organizes and promotes over fifty on campus and in-person workshops each semester.  All CEEI workshops are bundled into a series of thematically connected workshops or activities called Faculty Learning Communities.  You can still attend any workshop individually without committing to attending any other workshops in that series.  However, participating in a Faculty Learning Community allows deeper, more introspective, and more sustained engagement with a topic that single workshops cannot provide.  Small stipends are also available for full participation in some FLCs  (limit of one stipend per person per semester).

In addition, CEEI can provide Faculty Mentors inside or outside your discipline to observe your class or even survey your students at any point in the semester for you. The Director of CEEI is also always happy to meet privately to discuss your pedagogical philosophy, solve a teaching challenge, or brainstorm ways to engage your students more meaningfully.
