TLT Group
Newer, better, faster technology doesn't automatically lead to better learning and teaching. That's why the TLT Group believes in approaching technology "people first." With over ten years of experience, they've helped hundreds of colleges and universities use and adapt to technology in ways that support teaching and learning, value the time and experience of staff and faculty and make the most of tight budgets and resources.
The TLT Group knows the challenges colleges and universities face and knows how to help them make choices that support teaching and learning, values staff and faculty time, and makes the most out of tight budgets and limited resources. As a non-profit, the TLT group looks to enable collaboration, support, mutual understanding and communication among key stakeholders in an institution, and use evidence to make better decisions.

Welcome to Dillard University’s Faculty Center for Teaching, Learning and Academic Technology Blog (CTLAT)!
The Dillard University Center for Teaching, Learning and Academic Technology (CTLAT) http://www.dillard.edu is essential in helping faculty effectively manage technology on and off campus. An important aspect of this initiative is achieved by bringing groups of faculty members together to learn the technology necessary to develop electronic resources for their courses and themselves, while planning and beginning the development of shared curricular materials. Cultivating faculty success at all levels reinforces the University's commitment to build premier faculty learning communities. All faculty, deans and academic administrators play a critical role in creating competitive and productive academic units in which expectations for faculty performance are clearly articulated and professional achievements are recognized and rewarded.
The goals of the CTLAT at Dillard University are to...- Encourage research of effective teaching
- Improve teaching mastery of the faculty
- Enhance effective, discipline-based pedagogy
- Increase research support for faculty
The CTLAT supports faculty through...
- Professional development programs targeted to faculty from early career through senior leadership
- Print and online resources to inform and educate
- Analyses of trends and models of practice for faculty retention, advancement and contributions
