GIFTs of the Month – The CraFT

Kate Cammack, CfT Co-Director

While teaching gifts come in many forms, we most appreciate GIFTs (Great Ideas for Teaching) because they keep on giving – by streamlining our teaching, enriching our students’ experience, or helping us find moments of joy. We have so many wonderful teaching ideas, big and small, on our campus, and have much that we can learn from – and celebrate about – each other’s craft.

Have a GIFT you’d like to share with our campus community? Tell us about it!
