Associate faculty (sometimes called adjunct faculty, part-time faculty, or part-time lecturers) are an important part of the IU Indianapolis teaching community. At the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL), we are committed to supporting the teaching, growth, and professional development of associate faculty through the same programs, resources, and services available to all faculty. Whether you teach online, in a hybrid format, face-to-face, or in a clinical setting, we are here to support your work as an instructor.
Register to join us virtually for the Associate Faculty Welcome on September 11!
We warmly invite all associate faculty to register for the Associate Faculty Welcome to connect with colleagues, explore campus resources, and learn about the programs, services, and support available through the Center for Teaching and Learning and our campus partners.
Resources, Workshops, and Individual Consultations
The Center for Teaching and Learning supports associate faculty with Resources (tip sheets and topical resources available online, and with equipment loans), Workshops, and with Individual Consultations—both in-person (at our office in University Library) and remote (via video conference or telephone). Our center supports the efforts of associate faculty who seek to learn about, create, and implement appropriate and effective teaching strategies, whether through instructional design (teaching strategies and techniques) or through the use of technologies (e.g., Canvas, TopHat, etc.). Resources, workshops, and individual consultations may be about (but are not limited to) topics such as:
Instructional design
- Student learning outcomes
- Assessing student learning
- Active learning
- Course design
- Documenting your teaching effectiveness
- Teaching philosophy statement
- Scholarship of teaching and learning
Teaching with technology
- Online teaching
- Canvas
- Classroom technologies (e.g., GenAI, Top Hat, Kaltura, WeVideo)
- Accessibility
The Center for Teaching and Learning also offers opportunities to get feedback on your teaching. Request a consultation for services such as:
- Course design
- Classroom observations
- Student focus groups
- Online course reviews
