Center for Engaged Pedagogy

At the Center for Engaged Pedagogy, we believe that teaching and learning is a transformative process. Both students and teachers engage in meaningful teaching and learning practices that foster mutual growth and facilitate the collaborative cultivation of knowledge. We are committed to supporting and striving towards inclusive and innovative pedagogical practices that acknowledge diverse ways of knowing, forms of expertise, and academic pathways.

This Teaching Resources Guide compiles a series of CEP-produced guides to support faculty as they plan their classes. These resources identify everything from how to use backward design to plan your class to strategies for engaging students on the upcoming presidential election, this page will be just as useful to instructors finishing the syllabus of a brand new class as it will be to those who are updating an existing one.

We are thrilled to introduce the Learning, Engagement, and Assessment Fellows (LEAFs)! These Barnard students are trained in student-faculty pedagogical partnership, assessment/feedback, and facilitation. The LEAF program is based on the model of pedagogical partnership, which brings students and faculty together in mutually-rewarding collaboration on faculty's teaching questions. You can learn more about the program by selecting the "Pedagogical Partnership" tab on our site and read more about our fellows by clicking the link below.
