How CST supports Saint Martin's faculty
Faculty will be supported in their efforts to be the best teachers in the classroom through the center’s practices of:

- Nurturing a culture of innovation through leadership and collaboration with SMU faculty in applying emerging technologies to teaching and learning goals;
- Nurturing a culture of community through regular programs throughout the year that encourage the sense of belonging and the spirit of connectedness;
- Establishing and fostering learning communities among faculty through ongoing programs related to teaching and focused workshops, such as new faculty orientation and the Core redesign efforts and training;
- Fostering faculty scholarship in teaching, learning, and the disciplines;
- Staying abreast of educational theory and practices by participating in related workshops and conferences, building a library collection (also for faculty), and conducting ongoing research on the scholarship of faculty development;
