It provides an overview of evidence-based teaching practices and strategies. There will be no synchronous meetings, but participants are expected to engage with and respond to and engage with others on discussion boards and submit weekly reflections. Participants should plan to devote approximately three hours during each week of the program.

Foundations covers central topics in college teaching and asks participants to reflect on concepts, experiences, and applications at the end of each topic. Core topics include:

• Making Learning Accessible
