Our Mission
ITTC’s mission is to provide
instructional design tools, best
practices in teaching and learning, and
professional development by using
researched pedagogical practices that
empower faculty to foster academic
excellence as educators, researchers,
and professionals.
We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning
the answer itself. ~Lloyd Alexander
