I am incredibly excited that the all-new CLSE Resource Portal for Scientific Teaching is finally up and running! Our goal for this portal is to assist all CLSE community members in the pursuit of excellence in teaching, with an intentional focus on the concept of "scientific teaching." Check out the homepage news feed article, "Scientific Teaching on CWIS" if you would like a brief introduction to how scientific teaching works and how the resources on this portal can support that instructional approach. 

The portal is already filled with loads of resources for teaching, and can be a great help as you develop lectures, design assessments, create recitation activities, or make changes to prior course materials.

Speaking of prior course materials, be sure to register as a user with the portal, so that you can upload lessons and activities of your own that you think might be beneficial for others involved in undergraduate biology instruction.

While the resource portal itself has been around for quite some time, we are confident that the newest changes and additions to the site will make for a much improved user experience, and hope that the resource portal becomes one of the most widely adopted and commonly utilized tools among instructors and others in the CLSE.

All for now...see everyone soon with more updates and info, and feel free to comment about how you think the portal might be useful going forward into the new term and the new year.
