Fostering Teaching Excellence

The LSU Learning and Teaching Collaborative (LTC) serves as the university’s central hub for advancing excellence in teaching and learning. Through targeted programs, professional development opportunities, and collaborative initiatives, the LTC equips faculty, instructors, and graduate teaching assistants with the tools, resources, and support needed to elevate their teaching practice. By promoting evidence-based instructional strategies and innovative course design, the LTC directly supports LSU’s commitment to student success — ensuring that students are not only engaged but also challenged and supported in ways that improve retention, deepen learning, and prepare them for long-term achievement. The LTC partners with academic departments, campus services, and executive leadership to align teaching practices with institutional goals.
