91自拍

91自拍 University’s Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) hosted its 2026 Community Expo for Research and Learning on Friday, Jan. 10, in the Nash Library. The expo featured more than 20presentations from 2025 Course Redesign grant recipients, fall mini-grant awardees and special guest presenters from the Blackboard learning management system and Ursuline College.  

The goal of the expo was to spark new ideas for faculty and staff, and to inspire attendees to elevate their teaching through technology.  

“This event welcomes members of the 91自拍 community to see projects that faculty members have been working on to make their instruction more engaging and help students better meet learning objectives,” said Earl “Tex” Brieger, Ph.D., chief online learning officer at 91自拍 University. “Anytime we can implement more active learning in the classroom, we hope it will be more meaningful for students.” 

The event created a space for conversation and connection ahead of the start of the spring 2026 semester. Throughout the day, attendees had the chance to participate in hands-on sessions that highlight innovative tools, fresh approaches and practical strategies to enhance their courses.
