Promoting and supporting excellence in teaching is the primary aim of the Teaching Commons, which provides a range of opportunities for faculty to reflect and advance their teaching practices.

Faculty can design quality courses on Schoology. These courses can be taught remotely or traditionally.

Whether you are looking for an introduction to reflective practice, tips for facilitating reflection, or tools for your classroom, we invite you to explore our resources to help make what you teach as meaningful as possible for your students.

Teaching excellence has always been the focus of Carthage, and the College has always had a core of caring and stimulating teachers. In 1967, the Board of Trustees voted to recognize formally superior teaching by creating the Distinguished Teaching Award. It established a confidential committee to review nominations from students and select one faculty member for this special commendation. The Distinguished Teaching Award has now become an annual tradition. Each spring at the Honors Convocation, a Trustee announces that year’s winner, whose name is engraved on a plaque in Lentz Hall.
