Potentially Exciting Times Ahead
Several institutional initiatives underway and as a result, there's great potential for alignment and coordination. The Task Force on Teaching and Learning has just released their discussion paper which contains draft recommendations on teaching and learning support. The proposed draft recommendations are designed to improve processes and support for all students, instructors and staff. Their links to institutional strategic plans and related initiatives enable SFU Community to support quality learning. SFU Community members are encouraged to review, comment and discuss the draft recommendations. For more information see http:/www.sfu.ca/tftl

In addition to viewing the links in the left side-menu, new or current SFU instructors may be interested in a Using SFU Teaching Resources document that focuses on facilitating learning with SFU teaching and learning resources. The document starts by mapping common activities instructors want to do, with what's available at SFU to accomplish this goal. This is followed by a list of SFU resources, short descriptions and contact information.
