Fall Teaching, Learning, and Technology Conference

The Center for Teaching & Learning (CTL) and Office of Information Technology (OIT) invite all CU educators and community members to join us for our annual Fall Teaching, Learning, and Technology Conference 2025.
Held over two days, October 2–3, 2025, this hybrid conference will take place at the Center for Academic Success and Engagement (CASE) and over Zoom. This event will bring together educators and leaders from across campus to discuss strategies and technologies for promoting the engagement and success of all students, with a particular focus on large-enrollment courses.
This year's theme will be Engage Every Learner, and the conference will feature interactive workshops, faculty panels, opportunities to connect around innovative teaching strategies and tools, and networking lunch sessions to meet with units that support campus educators. Sessions will address approaches to active learning and technology integration, equity-minded teaching, and student engagement and success in large courses, as well as supporting educator wellbeing.
Morning refreshments and a catered lunch will be provided each day. Please RSVP by Friday, September 26, if you’d like to join us for lunch on one or both days. Participants are welcome to attend the full conference or drop in for specific sessions based on their interests and availability.
