CELTT: Changing Our Campus Culture?

What’s Happening in Public Higher Ed?• Accountability movement

• dwindling public funding• competition with private colleges• accrediting bodies

• Learning college movement• alternative to standardization?

• Additional pressure to conform?

What Are the Effects?• Pressure to compromise classroom

autonomy

• Resistance, leading to isolation

• Blaming students

• Judging colleagues

• Leadership crisis

Is it happening at KCC?

• Culture of high expectations

• Tension between departments around resources

• Insufficient support for faculty

How can a shift in campus culture help? • implementing learning-centered pedagogies is not easy• there is no such thing as a master teacher• mistakes should be celebrated as opportunities for

learning• leadership is not about a title• life balance should be honored• all “levels” and all approaches deserve support• everyone has something to offer• open conversations about

classroom practices should be nurtured
