Teaching and Learning Resources

The creation and transmission of knowledge is central to the core mission of a university. Achieving both scholarly eminence in research and the highest levels of pedagogical impact in the classroom and beyond are what makes a research university truly great. Practical resources that foster the enhancement of teaching and learning may be found here.

Campus Media

Campus Media offers service and support by providing media systems, along with media demonstrations and training in NYU classrooms as well as in a variety of venues around the university. The staff is trained to handle events that are technically and logistically complex.

The Center for Teaching Excellence

The Center for Teaching Excellence promotes an ongoing, university-wide discussion about teaching and learning matters, striving both to facilitate that conversation and to contribute to it intellectually. We seek at once to provide practical resources and activities that foster the enhancement of teaching and learning and to develop greater commitment across schools and programs to supporting teaching in the diverse NYU campus community.
