    Teaching and Learning

    Teaching and Learning shapes and inspires exceptional learning environments inside and outside the classroom by developing and supporting teaching excellence and innovation, continuing education, and experiential learning opportunities.

    Our professional teams contribute to a culture where teachers and learners feel highly encouraged, valued and empowered. This intentional collaboration of inclusive teaching and learning supports is part of what makes Laurier unique.

    Transforming the Way Students Learn

    Student success is a key focus of all of our efforts in Teaching and Learning.

    We bring faculty, staff, students and community together to align career development and experiential learning, and to support curricular workplace partnerships and programming.

    With focused supports available directly to faculty, academic staff, and graduate and undergraduate students, Laurier’s breadth of instructors can explore new approaches to their teaching practice with a diverse range of events, workshops, and professional consultation services.

    Highly engaging experiences delivered by faculty in the classroom and online paired with excellence in co-curricular opportunities are all underpinned by a wide variety of services to help Laurier students reach their full academic potential.
