University of Dallas Center for Teaching and Learning
Welcome to the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL). Director: Jacob Moldenhauer
(Physics), Committee members: David Upham (Politics), Sr. Elinor Gardner (Philosophy),
Jennifer Bannister (Business: Accounting), Zannah Buck (Library), Sarah Berry (English),
Mark Peterson (History), and Ana Henriquez (Academic Success).
The Center for Teaching and Learning is a cross-disciplinary, faculty-led initiative
to support excellence in teaching, scholarship, professional development, and convivial
collegiality.
The Center is working to develop a new program for the upcoming academic year that
will, of course, include weekly lunches at noon on Wednesday, Fruits of Sabbatical,
the writing group and several new initiatives.
This is the CTL lunch schedule for the first few sessions of Spring 2023. We will
be adding the rest of the semester lunch schedule as soon as we have confirmations.

Faculty Writing Group: This group meets on average every other week. “Writing” is
understood broadly here: in past semesters, though many participants have been working
on articles or books, some faculty have used this group to help them work on grant
applications, sustain a series of research meetings, and gather equipment and staff
for summer research projects. Anything that contributes to your research that requires
long-range planning would qualify as “writing” here. To learn more, email Dr. Sarah
E. Berry at sberry@udallas.edu.
If you have received an award or achieved an accomplishment that you would like to
share with your colleagues, please email Dr. Mark Petersen at mpetersen@udallas.edu.
Information on the Writing Group, Writing Retreat and the Fruits of Sabbatical coming
soon. If you have any suggestions for future or current programming, please email,
Dr. Jacob Moldenhauer ctl@udallas.edu.
