ARCHIVE OF CAFE NEWSLETTERS
The monthly CAFE faculty newsletter reports the latest resources, funding opportunities, news, stories, and upcoming events related to faculty professional development at Missouri S&T.
The Center for Educational Research and Teaching Innovation (CERTI) was created by Harvest Collier in 2007 in order to continually improve the learning environment for students by emphasizing collaborative, experiential, and technology-enhanced teaching practices. In 2018, CERTI merged into the new Center for Advancing Faculty Excellence which promotes faculty development and success at all stages of their careers. Past issues of the e-CERTI newsletter as well as CAFE newsletters are available here.
