Elisabetta Morani was a first-class librarian of international stature, who expanded the Frohring Library into one of the most important and modern English language libraries in Italy.
The Elisabetta Morani Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) promotes a collaborative environment where faculty, staff, students and community members work together to create rich and engaging learning experiences. CTL is committed to:
CTL serves as a central hub for all teaching and learning resources at the university, facilitating partnership and maximizing the impact of existing initiatives. Through a strong liberal arts orientation, we empower faculty to integrate technology, research, and open educational resources into their teaching, encouraging a dynamic and enriching learning environment for all students.
The Elisabetta Morani Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) envisions a university community where teaching is a valued and continuously evolving practice.
Faculty must be empowered to experiment, reflect, and refine their teaching methods, embracing innovative approaches to enhance student learning. Faculty empowerment allows students to become active participants in their learning journey, equipping them with the critical thinking and information literacy skills required to navigate complex information and engage in meaningful inquiry.
Such excellence in teaching and learning has its foundation in collaboration. All community members, from faculty to students, to staff, to the administration, must work together to develop and share best practices, cultivating a vibrant learning ecosystem that rests on three cornerstones: technological support, pedagogical innovation, and information literacy with close connection to the Frohring Library. By supporting these three cornerstones, CTL aims to create a learning ecosystem where technology empowers innovation, innovation enhances pedagogy, and a strong foundation in information literacy paves the way for lifelong learning, both for faculty and students.
