Welcome to the CIIA
Welcome to the Center for Instructional Innovation and Assessment (CIIA) at Western Washington University! The vision of the CIIA is centered on quality, assessment, and innovation in undergraduate learning environments. It has become a resource for faculty who wish to consider new ways of teaching, who would like to modify their existing courses to better serve their student learning objectives, or who would like to link to colleagues in other disciplines who share their values about teaching and learning in today's complex institutions of higher education.
Please take some time to explore everything that the Center for Instructional Innovation and Assessment has to offer, including our web-based resources for faculty. Explore some of our workshop offerings, or take the time to view the portfolios of innovative faculty at Western in the CIIA's yearly web publication, Innovative Teaching Showcase. Many of our services are elaborated upon in our recent newsletter.
We hope that you find what you're looking for and maybe even some things that surprise you. We welcome your comments and suggestions. Enjoy your visit to the CIIA's website!
"We cannot create genuine communities of practice for students until
we allow faculty to participate too… only if the teachers are learners too,
and if they can be seen to be learners, can they genuinely model
deep learning for the apprentice learners in the community."
John Tagg, The Learning Paradigm College, 2003
