The President’s Teaching and Learning Collaborative hosted a poster session Sept. 17 on the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. Director Mary Ann Shea welcomed presentations from the following faculty researchers: John Basey, Marylou Robinson, Carmen Stavrositu, Anne Becher, Ronica Rooks, Sonja Braun-Sand and Elaine Cheesman, Matthew Hallowell, Deborah Hollis and Amanda Brown, and Rebecca Webb.

The collaborative promotes the practice of inquiry in teaching and measuring student learning known nationally as the scholarship of teaching and learning. Shea explains that it is not about “making an assumption but making an inquiry” into why problems with student comprehension persist.
