About TILT
We partner with instructors to make sense of their teaching practice using theory, reflection, and action. We build capacity through consultation, workshops, seminars, projects, and communities of practice to help instructors actualize their ideas and values of teaching. We are self-reflective about our work and we share our stories to celebrate ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV’s teaching communities and promote recognition and respect for teaching scholarship.
Transforming Inquiry into Learning and Teaching (TILT) is a unit within the portfolio of ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV’s Associate Vice-President, Learning & Teaching. We generate and support teaching and learning research and scholarship.
Built from a grass-roots collaborative in 2007, we work with instructors and faculty members university-wide to support inquiry into teaching and learning.
We create opportunities and entry ways for faculty, instructors, staff, and students to engage in the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) at ¶¡ÏãÔ°AV.
Mandate
We advance teaching and learning research scholarship by:
- Partnering with instructors to enhance learning through the development of theory and knowledge of teaching and learning
- Embracing the multiple ways of knowing to support transformative and situated-practice
- Promoting instructors’ expertise and expanding our collective commitment to evidence-based teaching and learning through reflective inquiry
Our Values
- We make an impact: TILT builds capacity through conscious and explicit inquiry and scholarship. Our work is theoretically grounded, reflective, and situated in the multiple contexts that create learners and teachers.
- We work in collaboration: TILT is committed to relationship-oriented work with individuals, institutional partners, and the wider community to embrace diversity and collectively conduct our research.
- We use evidence-based approaches: TILT adopts research approaches that are systematic and grounded while embracing new ways of knowing and innovative designs and metrics.
- We are holistic: TILT values the whole person, and we seek to grow a community of scholarship that embeds well-being social connectedness. We believe in adopting de-colonial approaches to teaching and learning that are inclusive and respect diverse traditions and histories.
