Center for Teaching, Learning, and Assessment
The Center for Teaching, Learning, & Assessment (CTLA), within the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost, advances teaching excellence across OHIO. The center, newly expanded and relaunched in fall 2022, works with critical partners to provide faculty development, create opportunities for faculty collaboration, grow faculty competencies in assessment, promote the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) and Discipline-based Research (DBER), and support policies and procedures related to teaching and learning. By participating in CTLA programs, colleagues across the University share ideas and expertise with one another, implement evidence-based instructional strategies in a variety of learning contexts and assess the effectiveness of teaching practices. At the heart of such efforts is a core value of transforming students' intellectual growth and skill acquisition, as well as promoting their development as individuals and as engaged citizens.
Division of Diversity and Inclusion
Ohio University's Division of Diversity and Inclusion seeks to facilitate an infusion of diversity embedded into the fabric of the institution with inclusive practices, institutional policies, curricula and programs leading to a supportive and affirming environment that welcomes and respects all persons specifically those individuals and groups who have historically been excluded, not represented and or rendered voiceless in society.
Experiential Learning
Experiential learning is learning by doing, and then reflecting on the experience to make the future better. It’s a cycle of preflection, action, and reflection. Ohio University has defined it this way: Experiential learning is an approach to education that emphasizes engaged student learning through direct experience and reflection to increase knowledge, develop skills, and elucidate values. Experiential learning activities are intentionally designed to develop students’ knowledge, skills, and attitudes through experience related to a field. Experiential learning may occur in curricular and co-curricular settings. Contexts for experiential learning may include (but are not limited to) internships, apprenticeships, clinical experience, fellowships, cooperatives, field work, practicums, community engagement (service-learning, community-based research, volunteering), interactive simulations, role-playing, performance, professional internship/student teaching, study abroad/cultural immersion, research (basic, applied, lab, industry, community), live case studies, job training, place-based education, and student organization leadership.
Facilities Management and Safety
Facilities Management & Safety creates an ideal campus environment where the community achieves excellence by safely, efficiently, and sustainably providing exceptional services. Building upon a proud heritage of quality staff and services, Facilities Management and Safety will become a benchmark organization recognized for superior customer service. In doing so, we will further develop our staff, continuously improve our processes, and team together to overcome all challenges.
