Through research, capacity-building, and advocacy, the Office of Curricular, Pedagogical, and Digital Innovation (OCPDI) provides actionable innovations in teaching, learning, and assessment to create foundations for excellence and improve undergraduate liberal education for all students.
VALUE is an authentic approach to assessment designed to articulate and measure the skills, abilities, and dispositions that students need and that parents, policymakers, and employers demand.
The adoption of open educational resources (OER)—materials that are free or low-cost for faculty and students to use, customize, and share—is a foundational strategy for improving student equity and college affordability.
From assignment (re)design to course-level enhancements to curricular reform, OCPI applies a holistic approach to building faculty capacity.
Both a product—an archive of learning artifacts—and a process that supports student learning, ePortfolios digitally curate student work to provide an authentic representation of learning outcomes.
