Academic Excellence Framework (AEF)

City Colleges Academic Affairs is proud to offer Instructional Fundamentals: Reflective Practice, a two-week, asynchronous short course intended to support faculty instructional development in line with Pillar 2 of the Academic Excellence Framework.

  • Practice and share new tools for evaluating student work
  • Review and revise instructions for an assignment
  • Establish reflective practices for yourself
