Welcome to the home of the Teaching Innovation Incubator (TII). The goal of the TII is to support experimentation with bold teaching and learning ideas by bringing together talent, expertise, and - where appropriate - technology to serve as a hub, catalyst, and launch pad for the development of transformative teaching ideas at ݮƵ. It provides the opportunity and necessary support to develop, “test drive,” and evaluate ideas that have potential to be part of the next generation of teaching and learning at ݮƵ.
Since 2022, the Teaching Innovation Incubator (TII) has been supporting bold teaching and learning ideas. With cross-functional, cross-faculty teams pursuing innovative ideas, its six current "beta" projects—designed to shape the Incubator’s long-term future—are now reaching their final stages. Beta projects will be joined by three new projects in February 2025 who were selected as part of the TIIs inaugural open call for Teaching Innovation Incubator Project teams.
