2013 CELT Conference: Schedule Highlights

Registration will begin in August

CSU, Chico's Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching is pleased to announce the 20th Annual Conference on Learning and Teaching for faculty, staff, students, administration, and community.

The CELT Conference is intended to give us time to discuss what each of us is doing, and can further do, to enhance high quality learning and teaching–in the University and beyond. When preparing your proposal, please consider what will be interesting and/or helpful to your colleagues—and what will contribute most to our students’ learning.

This year we focus on Wellness, for we only can thrive academically and intellectually when we are well in mind, body and spirit. Equally important is the value of Personal and Social Responsibility, as all of us must make the decisions and take the actions that build a community of wellness. At the CELT Conference this year we explore the many ways in which we work to enhance our students’ learning in the present and in preparation for their future.
