This site "provides links to information and internal and external resources to help faculty in many areas" concerning the scholarship of teaching and technology innovations. Also, the builders hope that faculty will participate and " contribute ideas, experiences, questions, resources, and so on."

"The website is considered to be a "living" resource that will change continually and to which each faculty member may contribute ideas, experiences, questions, resources, and so on."
